Located near the banks of the Kamigawa River that carries fresh water from Tateshina and Yatsugatake to Lake Suwa, the Chino City Museum of Art was opened on July 5, 1980. In October 2005, it was relocated to the Chino Cultural Complex near the east exit of JR Chino Station.

As a result of local artists and those who sought refuge during wartime, Suwa has a rich history of pioneering art education and dissemination. There were many artists who were born on or visited the Tateshina Plateau and stayed there.

The Chino City Museum of Art exhibits works by artists with ties to the region. The museum's collection includes over 1000 pieces of artwork spanning various genres, such as paintings, sculptures, crafts, calligraphy, prints, and photographs.

In addition to permanent and special exhibitions, the museum actively engages with the community by offering participatory workshops, educational programs, and collaborative projects with theaters and community organizations. With these initiatives, the museum aims to make art accessible to the public. Through it, people have the chance to encounter and appreciate art on a daily basis.
