The Adachi Museum of Art (足立美術館, Adachi Bijutsukan) opened in Yasugi, Shimane Prefecture, Japan in 1970. It houses a collection of nihonga (modern Japanese paintings), including paintings by Yokoyama Taikan, and has a celebrated garden.[1]

Its six gardens and around 1,500 exhibits of Japanese paintings, pottery, and other works of art occupy the 165,000 square-meter area. Adachi Museum of Art earned the top rating of three stars in Michelin Green Guide Japan because of its elegance.[2]

In April 2020, the museum opened a separate hall dedicated to the works of Kitaoji Rosanjin.[3]
