Art museum using a closed schoolThe spacious playground has grass so children can run around and play.There are also several sculptures installed.There is also a cafe where you can have some leisurely time.
If you love Art, Nature and Coffee, you can enjoy all of them here.The architecture had sense of place that came from the old elementary school. You could feel kind of energy with the space. I liked the sound whenever I took steps on the wooden floor even though it's in the exhibition hall.I visited there several times. The scenery of every season was beautiful. The old shool playground has turned into a wide lawn , so I recommend there to kids or people who came on a picnic. There's enough space to enjoy it.The exhibition seems to change more than once per season. I don't care much about what kind of artwork is there. I just try to enjoy Art as it is and try to find out something cool in it.I especially liked to visit there one rainy morning. It's more quiet than in other times. When I got in the gallery space on the 3rd floor, I listened to the sound of raining. Then I went to the cafe in the building. Coffee there was pretty cool and I just relaxed with the green landscape, and the scent of rain and coffee.There is also cultural field space around the museum. It's called "Star Art Village". It's a good place to take a walk.Yeongcheon isn't well known for tourism. It could be a good option to visit there and Keongju , if you'd like to travel for 2 days or more. I found a couple of nice restaurants in Yeongcheon. I liked them , so sometimes I visited the museum for having lunch near there after visiting it.
