To warm up, mentally and emotionally, before heading for our galleries, To relax and sort out your feelings after seeing an exhibition, To share your impressions — Please drop by the Welcome Room.
We have turned a former office space that was not open to the public into the Welcome Room.

- There is no charge for using the Welcome Room itself, but, since it is inside the museum, the museum admission fee is required.
