September arrives with a new season and inspires change in Inhotim’s artistic collection as well. The Institute’s natural landscape is preparing to bloom in the spring, changing the colors and tones of the gardens, while the Galpão and Marcenaria Galleries are undergoing maintenance to host, in the coming months, new temporary exhibitions.

Take advantage of the Independence holiday to visit the institute, open from Wednesday to Sunday, including holidays. Every Wednesday is free admission day, as well as the last Sunday of the month. Residents of Brumadinho registered at Nosso Inhotim can also visit Inhotim free of charge. Learn more about gratuity and visitation rules here.

It is also the month to celebrate the 17th anniversary of Inhotim since it opened to visitors: celebrate with a visit between nature and our galleries, the exhibitions that integrate the Abdias Nascimento and the Black Art Museum Program, in the Praça and Mata Galleries, and also in the library, as well as in the Orange Axis and in the Fonte and Lago Galleries, and admiring the nine themed gardens scattered around the Institute. Rediscover your favorite work or observe the details of the 4,300 botanical species found throughout Inhotim’s area.
