Inujima Art Museum

Japan, 704-8153 327-4 Inujima, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture

This museum is conscious of a recycling-oriented society and serves as a model for new regional creation through "heritage, architecture, art, and the environment." The former smelter site on the Inujima Seirensho Museum grounds was designated as one of the 33 "Modern Industrial Heritage Sites" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in 2007 for the purpose of revitalizing the region. In 2009, the island was selected as one of the "100 Treasure Island Sceneries" by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism as an island of art that makes use of its industrial heritage. *The Akebono Maru ferry service between Hoden and Inujima, departing Hoden at 15:15 and Inujima at 15:35, only operates on days when the museum is open.
