About

Yūbari City Museum of Art (Yūbari-shi Bijutsukan) opened in Yūbari, Hokkaido, Japan in 1979. In February 2012, the museum's roof collapsed after heavy snowfall; due to the city's financial difficulties, the museum has since remained closed. The collection was undamaged and, since the museum's closure, has been stored in other facilities in the city, featuring in a number of temporary exhibitions.
