Welcome to MoNA, the Museum of Nepali Art! Our mission is to collect, preserve, document, research, and exhibit Nepali art and artistic practices. We aim to educate visitors about Nepali art, fostering an understanding, appreciation, and promotion of our artistic heritage. MoNA occupies a unique position in the art world, focusing specifically on Nepali artistic practices and traditions.

Nepali art is a reflection of our country's rich culture and soul, with a history spanning over two millennia. Our museum houses a comprehensive collection of Nepali art, including religious traditions and more recent secular manifestations. Situated in the Kathmandu Guest House, MoNA strives to make the artworks of past and present Nepali master artists easily accessible to everyone.

We break barriers by presenting masterpieces to a wider and all-inclusive public, expanding knowledge, interest, and awareness of these artistic practices. Experience the interplay of Western styles juxtaposed with local cultural context, giving our art a unique character that is truly whole Nepali and placing Nepal on the global platform.
