The Tel Aviv Museum of Art is a major art museum in central Tel Aviv, Israel, founded in 1932. It is the city’s principal public institution for modern and contemporary visual art.

The museum’s collections focus on Israeli art alongside international modern and contemporary works and rotating special exhibitions. Exhibition spaces include permanent displays and temporary galleries that present painting, sculpture, photography, and design.

Established by the Tel Aviv municipality in 1932, the museum expanded several times across the 20th century to accommodate growing collections and exhibition needs. A major building expansion was completed in the early 21st century, creating new gallery space and modern facilities.

The museum sits in central Tel Aviv in the Tel Aviv District, within easy reach of the city’s cultural and civic district. It is accessible by public transport and is a short distance from other central attractions in the city.

The Tel Aviv Museum of Art is in central Tel Aviv on Shaul HaMelech (King Saul) Boulevard near Dizengoff. It’s served by many city buses that run along Ibn Gabirol and Shaul HaMelech; taxis and shared rides are also convenient for direct drop‑offs at the museum entrance.

By rail the nearest major station is Tel Aviv Savidor (Savidor Merkaz), about a 10-20 minute walk (roughly 1-1.5 km) south of the museum; Tel Aviv HaShalom station is also within a similar walking/taxi distance depending on your route.

• Visit on a weekday late morning or late afternoon to avoid peak school-group times and weekend crowds; the museum's contemporary and temporary exhibition spaces are busiest around midday.
• Ask about guided tours or the museum's program schedule on arrival-joining a short curator-led or audio tour will help you find highlights (modern Israeli and international collections) and the sculpture garden that many visitors overlook.
• If you're visiting during a temporary exhibition, buy tickets in advance online when possible-special exhibits can sell out on popular weekends and evenings.
