    Opened in 2006, this art museum primarily houses and displays local cultural art of Aomori City and Aomori Prefecture.

In the center of the museum is the Aleko Hall, where one can see in one glance all 4 masterpieces of the master Marc Chagall's 4 backdrops from the ballet ''Aleko'' until March 2021 (proposed). A broad range of standard exhibit items include western art, Japanese style paintings, modern art, and works by local artists.

    Aomori Kamikita-gun Shichinohemachi Arakumanai 67-94
    An art museum opened in 1994 to honor the work of Shichinohe Town, Aomori Prefecture-born Western-style painter Uichi Takayama (1908-1999). The museum's standing exhibit primarily contains works submitted to the Nikaten art exhibition, which served as a space for Takayama to reveal his works throughout his career; as well as a large number of sketches which served as the foundation of the artist's creation activities. The museum also holds special exhibitions around twice a year.

Aomori Areas

around-area-map

Centuries-old stories of samurai at Kakunodate and the remains of millennia-old archaeological sites including the likes of Isedotai invite history buffs to delve into Aomori’s fascinating history. As the most northern prefecture on the Japanese mainland, Aomori enjoys a cooler climate, which makes it a welcome escape from the southern cities for combining castles, art galleries, and summer festivals with the great outdoors.
