Nice little museum with some exhibits featuring women artists, and more. Free entrance.
Excellent organization of the exhibitions, helpful and polite staff.
Only the second floor was open for visits.
The museum is located in a historic building across from the Municipal Theater. Admission is free. We visited in October 2026, and only the second floor was open. There were several antique sculptures, some paintings and various other sculptures, a small exhibition of five paintings by a Brazilian artist, and another exhibition of contemporary women artists called "Abolitionists," whose theme champions the fight against racism and keeps alive the memory of the relatively recent abolition of slavery. The museum is currently under restoration. Hopefully, they will soon be able to open other sections and recover many works from Rio de Janeiro's history—of which there are surely many! Best regards.
What kind of place only operates in the afternoon, and on weekdays? People go to the museum on their days off, not during the week. And the exhibitions are completely uninspired; just look at the low visitor numbers, it's clear and obvious. I don't recommend it until real fine art is showcased and valued.
A fairly large museum, with beautiful architecture and very unique exhibits.
