Towada Art Center

Towada Art Center opened in 2008 as the first contemporary art museum in Tohoku. With the theme of humanity and nature, the museum permanently exhibits work by world-renowned artists such as Yayoi Kusama, Yoshitomo Nara, and Ron Mueck. Each room displays a single work of art, giving visitors the experience of stepping inside the work. The exhibition rooms, both large and small, are connected by glass corridors, and the structure of the museum is unique in that it is like walking through an art house. Not only in the museum but also in the surrounding art plaza and shopping street, visitors can enjoy art in the entire city.

Our facilities include permanent and temporary exhibition spaces, a collaborative space, and a cafe, as well as other spaces for incorporating the community into art activities and exchange. In addition to art exhibitions, the Towada Art Center works within the community to support a variety of cultural programs.
