Ticket categories and how to get there

Individual tickets are about 500 yen for adults and university students, about 300 yen for junior and senior high school students and about 200 yen for children aged 4 to elementary school. Seniors 65 and over pay about 400 yen, and children 3 and under are free. Visitors with a disability certificate and one companion enter free. The gallery's own page notes that entry is not timed.
