This private art museum is located on the fifth floor of a car dealership building on John F. Kennedy Avenue. It houses a collection of artworks dating from the mid-19th century through the 1960s, providing a visual record of Dominican art history. Travelers visit this site to view a curated selection of historical pieces in a non-traditional gallery setting.
