About CMP INSPIRATION
CMP INSPIRATION is a museum born for imagination. It is the first cultural venue in Taiwan designed by internationally renowned architect Kengo Kuma, who opened up the earth from the street and guided visitors into the museum with a design language of curling arabesques. Through art education, creator support, and international curation, CMP INSPIRATION connects art, design, and daily life with creative interpretation and cross-disciplinary integration, inviting everyone to open their imagination.
About the 2026 Spring Exhibition "Do You Need an Artist? Just 'Draw' It!"
Viewing is participating! Step into CMP INSPIRATION, and you're not just here to see an exhibition, but to transform into an artist and complete art creations with family and friends. This spring exhibition creates 4 experiential creative sites, inviting 6 groups of artists to become creative partners. From collage exercises of points, lines, and surfaces, observation of light, shadow, and perspective, to arranging still life and drawing your own still life paintings, and even allowing the audience to become a part of the picture. Found objects can also be transformed into soft sculptures, opening up imagination between play and creation.
In the center of the exhibition hall, the "Floating Cloud" installation invites adults and children, along with their partners, to leave their brushstrokes and inspiration, allowing creativity to accumulate slowly in the space. This is a 100-day art co-creation experiment involving 10,000 people, and every hands-on experience is a unique memory for you.
Complete your on-site creation and leave your work to become an "exhibiting artist" at CMP INSPIRATION, and you will receive an exclusive "Artist Pass," granting unlimited re-entry rights during the exhibition period. Invite your friends and family to witness your creative achievements. Whether it's a family outing or a sweet date, you can find your creative moments together in this art practice space.

Reviews
In the first stage, painting trees gave me a sense of unrestrained growth. The second stage, free painting, is a place where people can relax, de-stress, and explore their inner selves. My friend also really enjoyed this feeling of de-stressing. I think if there are any difficulties in life, it's a great idea to participate in more activities like this. Finally, the green bag stage, where you leave behind past memories (you just put in the memories you want to keep), was also quite nice.
I was so impressed by everyone's creativity at the exhibition. I thought I wouldn't be able to succeed and could only admire from afar, but then my competitive spirit kicked in at the last minute, and I successfully brought home a piece I loved!
This was my first time at the CMP Block Museum of Arts, and the e-ticket process was very smooth. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to create much, but I really enjoyed seeing so many beautiful artworks!
What a great experience! You can stick stickers wherever you like to plant a tree, draw whatever you want on a blank piece of paper, and finally leave a personal item behind, waiting for the artist to return with it next time. What a memorable day!
It's a really wonderful feeling to pick up a paintbrush again, because I truly didn't know what to draw, so I just drew my favorite character!
A fantastic experience! You can spend the whole day inside drawing ✍️. With an artist's pass, you can revisit unlimited times during the exhibition period. Highly recommended!
The spacious area, diverse exhibits, smooth flow, elegant atmosphere, and rich artistic ambiance are complemented by comfortable lighting and exquisite works, making it worth savoring. Highly recommended for a return visit.
Easy to get to this place. The activities were fun and interesting. My 2 kids enjoyed all the sessions. We spent 2:30 hours there and it could have been longer if we had more time.

It's a lot of fun, and the exhibition space is very comfortable. You can see different creations, which is great.
