Pont-Aven museum

About

The Pont-Aven Museum is a French museum located in Pont-Aven, Finistère, Brittany. Created in 1985, renovated between 2013 and 2016, the Musée de Pont-Aven aims to make known the work of artists inspired by Brittany and especially Pont-Aven, since the 1860s, to develop scientific work concerning this chronological period and to open up to contemporary creation. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions highlighting certain themes or artists, combining different styles and inspirations, from the Pont-Aven school to contemporary art. Since 2012, the museum, previously run by the municipality, has been transferred to Concarneau Cornouaille Agglomeration.
