Leisurely Appreciate Shonan-Connected Art in a Cool Museum
About this spot
Themed around "Shonan Art and Light," this municipal art museum brings together works by artists connected to the Shonan region. In its bright, open building, you can leisurely enjoy both the special exhibitions and the permanent collection for about an hour and a half. Spending time immersed in art within the cool museum during the hot afternoon becomes an even more luxurious experience when contrasted with the fireworks at night. A break at the museum cafe is also recommended.
