Ilulissat Art Museum features in its second floor a permanent exhibition that puts the colonial period paintings by Emanuel A. Petersen and Harald Moltke in a critical context.
The ground floor presents annually up to six international visiting exhibitions of contemporary art that build a dialogue with the collection.
The art museum is home to a creativity workshop for local youngsters and offers a good library on Greenlandic art. At the museum shop visitors can buy original, signed Greenlandic art works.
Helge B. Møller designed the museum building in 1923 as the house for the former colony manager. Since 1995, it serves as the art museum.
The opening hours differ between summer and winter season and are regularly updated on the museum’s Facebook page.
One ticket – two museums: a ticket to the Ilulissat Art museum gives you also access to the Ilulissat Cultural History Museum.
