The Akita Senshu Museum of Art opened in 1989 within the Akita Integrated Life Cultural Hall-Museum (nicknamed Atorion). Its predecessor, the Akita City Museum established in 1958, has been cherished by many art lovers as an urban art museum.

The museum houses works by artists associated with Akita, such as Shozan Satake, Naotake Odano, the Hirafuku father-son duo Suian and Hyakusui, Kogyo Terasaki, and Ihei Kimura. It also hosts special exhibitions featuring excellent works from both domestic and international artists.

Additionally, the museum includes the Kenzo Okada Memorial Hall, which permanently exhibits works by the Western-style painter Kenzo Okada, who received high acclaim overseas, particularly in New York. The exhibits are periodically rotated to provide fresh viewing experiences for visitors.
