Located in the main town square in Velenje, the Velenje Gallery is a vivid contemporary arts institution in the heart of the Šaleška Valley. Since 1976 its exhibition programme has focused mostly on local and Slovene fine artists, including the graduate students of the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, whose production was annually presented at the Velenje Artists' Colony between 1990 and 2009.
The gallery was thoroughly renovated in 2015. As of 2016 the gallery is being run by the Festival Velenje Public Institute.

Founded in 1974, the Božidar Jakac Art Museum is located in the building of the former Cistercian monastery near Kostanjevica by the Krka River, one of Slovenia's finest medieval monuments, which is situated in the picturesque landscape of south-eastern Slovenia. With its over 4,000 m² of exhibition surfaces, it is the largest gallery complex in Slovenia. Initially, the institution focused on presenting the artistic legacy of the Bela Krajina, Dolenjska and Posavje regions. Today, its scope covers also Slovenian expressionism and contemporary artistic production on the regional, national and international levels.
