Set in a wonderfully restored casona (large house) and garden dating back to the founding of Arequipa itself in 1540, this museum's small, changing collection of contemporary art by arequipeño and international artists is worth a stroll to its central location near the Plaza de Armas.

If your Spanish is up to it, check the website for details of drawing, painting and kids workshops.
