Nagano Prefectural Art Museum

Nagano Prefectural Art Museum, Art museum in Jōyama Park, Nagano, Japan.

The Nagano Prefectural Art Museum is an art museum in Jōyama Park with exhibitions spread across multiple floors featuring paintings, sculptures, and decorative works. Horizontal walkways connect the exhibition spaces, allowing visitors to move between galleries with ease.

The museum was originally founded in 1966 as the Shinano Art Museum and served as a local cultural center for decades. A major renovation and expansion took place in 2021, updating the building and increasing its display capacity.

The museum focuses on Japanese artists and displays works from creators who shaped the region's artistic identity. The exhibition spaces reflect how local artistic traditions developed over different periods and movements.

The museum sits near Zenkoji Temple, making it easy to combine with other local sightseeing in the area. The layout spans multiple floors, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended for exploring the exhibition spaces.

The museum operates a separate gallery annex that houses nearly 1000 works by a single artist. This collection offers a deeper look into the life's work of a major creator important to the region.
