The Shiranui Art Museum & Library is a comprehensive cultural facility in Uki, where the art museum and library are housed in the same building. The art museum features a collection of works by world-renowned artists with ties to Uki City. In addition to preserving and passing down the achievements of these artists who have grown in this land and made their mark on the world, the museum also provides opportunities to experience diverse arts and expressions that are connected to our lives in this ever-changing modern world, creating a space for dialogue.

The library, as a hub of knowledge, not only serves to preserve culture but also creates a foundation for deepening knowledge and fostering creativity. We hope that citizens will move freely between the art museum and the library, opening doors to unknown worlds discovered through art at the museum, and further exploring these worlds through the library's resources, thereby gaining new perspectives.

As an open art museum and library, we aim to nurture the creativity of each individual and grow together with our community.
