Ueno-no-mori Museum

The Ueno Royal Museum is an art museum managed by the public-service incorporated foundation, the Japan Art Association, whose current governor and honorary patron is Prince Hitachi. The museum opened in April 1972 as part of the renovations to the art exhibition pavilion at the Japan Art Association Museum, the oldest art association in Japan, having been established in 1879.

The Ueno Royal Museum is loved as an art museum in harmony with the environment of Ueno Park. The museum holds original exhibitions every year, including the Ueno Royal Museum Grand Prize Exhibition, the Japanese Nature Painting Exhibition, and the VOCA Exhibition.
