Forever Museum of Contemporary Art, Gion-Kyoto (FMOCA)
Museum in The Kyoto Higashiyama-ku area
At the Forever Museum of Contemporary Art, Gion-Kyoto (FMOCA), we strive to expose people to a living, breathing tradition that fuses both time-honored and present-day culture.
We are located inside the Gion Kobu Kaburenjo Theater, a well-known hub of traditional Japanese culture. Specifically, we operate our contemporary art museum out of this facility's Yasaka Club, which was completed in 1913 and is registered as a tangible cultural property. FMOCA's exhibition areas, housed in spaces fitted throughout with tatami mat flooring that express the appeal of traditional Japanese architectural design, bring together both traditional and contemporary culture, offering a novel art experience for visitors to enjoy.
