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.
Tips
About a 10-minute walk from Hachimangu Shrine. The permanent collection costs around 300 yen for adults; special exhibitions vary in price, so check the official website. Photography permissions differ by exhibition, so please follow the posted notices.
Best time to visit
Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes required. Enjoy as a refuge from the hot afternoon heat
