Ishikawa Prefectural Museum of Art — Attraction in Kanazawa

I wish I didn’t understand Japanese, then I may not have noticed..

The staff were behaving with discrimination towards us. They told us not to take photos so we didn’t.

They were still wary we were taking photos when we weren’t. Extra attention was paid towards following us around. My friend doesn’t understand Japanese so I asked for English brochure which they had non. So I explained to my friend some history. He was googling the history and the staff kept asking why he has his phone out. I explained to them we were using it to understand the exhibit and they could see we weren’t taking any photos. They left us alone briefly and the they came back to tell us we are not allowed to use our phones. They were still watching us this whole time and we had no intention of taking photos.

Instead of embarrassing us how about labelling your exhibitions clearly. Is it no photos? Or no phones? There was nothing saying we are not allowed to use phones.

There wasn’t even a no photo sign at this particular exhibition and at the other exhibition the no photo sign was so tiny and hard to see. Nor was there anything about no photos when we purchased...

The museum features a number of the Maeda samurai clan's historic artworks.

Fabulous overview of local art. Photography nit allowed in most galleries, I would live to gave purchased pist cards of my favorite items, but the postcard selection was limited. They have a lot of free colored brochures to take away. Tge guft shop has a lot un it but was expensive and bot suutable for a traveller. A suggestion is to allow non-Japanese reading tourists to use phones for translation of exhibition notes as only the name of the item was in English. The cafe is a dessert place, not for lunch. The staff are very attentive and friendly. Coin lockers worked well. It was well...
