Inside, you'll find works by renowned contemporary artists such as Kohei Nawa and Michiko Nakanishi. The museum also has a community space designed by MUJI. Located a 10-minute walk from Tokamachi Station, MonET offers a unique blend of art and architecture in the heart of the satoyama (mountain village).
