Iwaki City Art Museum

The Iwaki City Art Museum features exhibition spaces across multiple floors, displaying contemporary works and permanent collections from Japanese and international artists.

The museum opened its doors on April 28, 1984, marking a shift in the cultural development of Iwaki from its industrial coal mining past.

The institution maintains a collection of regional artworks and conducts educational programs through regular workshops and guided tours for students and adults.

Located near public transportation routes, the museum provides wheelchair access, a gift shop with art merchandise, and downloadable sculpture maps for exploring art spots.

The museum received the BCS Prize for its architectural design, which incorporates elements that facilitate natural light distribution throughout the exhibition spaces.
