Initial version
Art galleries are community entertainment lots in inZOI where your Zoi can view artwork, admire sculptures, and find artistic inspiration. Two galleries are available across the game's cities: the Narim Art Gallery in Dowon and the Lumiere Art Gallery in Bliss Bay. Both venues are open every day from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, making them accessible destinations for Zois looking to spend their leisure time surrounded by creative works.
Visiting an art gallery is particularly useful for Zois developing their Art skill. Galleries provide a space to absorb artistic inspiration, which complements hands-on practice at an easel or on a mural wall. Beyond skill development, they also serve as social venues where your Zoi can meet other characters and enjoy a quiet cultural outing.
Each of inZOI's main cities features one art gallery. The table below compares the two venues.
Gallery | City | District | Lot Type | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Narim Art Gallery | Center of Dowon | Community Entertainment | 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM | |
Lumiere Art Gallery | Center of Bliss Bay | Community Entertainment | 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM |
Narim Art Gallery sits in the center of Dowon, the game's urban metropolitan city. The gallery is filled with beautiful artwork and sculptures, and it is considered the best place in Dowon to find artistic inspiration. After browsing the exhibits, visitors can head to the nearby Cafe Gaon for a cup of coffee and some relaxation. The combination of the gallery and the adjacent cafe makes the area a natural spot for a leisurely outing.
Lumiere Art Gallery is located in the center of Bliss Bay, the coastal resort city. The gallery features art from both local and international artists, giving visitors a broad range of styles to appreciate. Zois who stop by can take in the exhibits, receive inspiration, and experience the kind of emotional engagement that art lovers look for. Bliss Bay's relaxed seaside atmosphere makes Lumiere a fitting cultural complement to the city's beaches and outdoor attractions.
Art galleries are categorized as entertainment community lots, which means they support a range of leisure activities. While the specific interactions depend on the objects placed on the lot, the general activities available at galleries include:
Viewing artwork and sculptures: Your Zoi can browse the displayed pieces, spending time looking at paintings and sculptures throughout the gallery space.
Finding artistic inspiration: Spending time at a gallery helps your Zoi absorb creative influences. This is especially valuable for Zois who are working on building their Art skill, as the experience of viewing art contributes to their creative development.
Socializing: Galleries attract other Zois and NPCs, providing opportunities to meet new characters, chat, and build relationships in a calm setting. Unlike louder entertainment venues, galleries offer a more subdued social environment.
Relaxing: A visit to the gallery counts as a leisure activity, helping your Zoi unwind. The nearby Cafe Gaon at Narim Art Gallery offers an additional relaxation option with coffee.
The Art skill is one of the adult skills available in inZOI, focused on creating visual artwork such as paintings and murals. While galleries themselves are not the primary way to level the Art skill, they play a supporting role in a Zoi's artistic development. The main methods for improving the Art skill are outlined below.
Method | Description |
|---|---|
Easel Painting | Purchase an easel from the build menu and interact with it to create paintings. This is the most straightforward way to gain Art skill experience. As the skill levels up, new painting types and styles become available. |
Mural Painting | Head out into the city to find mural spaces on walls. Working on murals lets your Zoi practice art in a public setting while also meeting other people nearby. Murals take less time to complete than easel paintings, but you cannot take them home. |
Reading Art Books | Select a bookcase at home and choose to read an art book. Studying art through books provides a slower but passive way to build skill experience. |
Visiting Galleries | Spending time at Narim Art Gallery or Lumiere Art Gallery lets your Zoi absorb artistic inspiration, complementing hands-on practice. |
The Art skill progresses through levels 1 to 10. As your Zoi advances through these levels, they unlock additional painting types and produce higher-quality artwork. Quality directly affects how much a finished painting is worth when sold. Children can develop the Creativity skill, which converts into four adult skills upon aging up, including Art. A child who maxes out Creativity will start adulthood with level 5 in Art, giving them a significant head start.
One of the most practical benefits of developing the Art skill is the ability to sell finished paintings for Meow through the Pocket Market. Once your Zoi completes a painting on an easel, you can select the artwork and choose to sell it on Pocket Market. The app immediately takes the painting and pays out a lump sum of Meow based on the item's quality.
The selling price of a painting depends on the Zoi's Art skill level and the quality of the finished piece. At lower skill levels, paintings tend to be poor quality and sell for modest amounts. As the Art skill increases, the quality of produced artwork rises, and so does the selling price. Skilled painters can earn substantial amounts of Meow from their work. Community reports suggest that dedicated painters can earn upward of 80,000 Meow in a single extended painting session at high skill levels, making Art one of the more profitable skills in the game.
Paintings created at a Zoi's home easel can also be kept as decorations rather than sold. Hanging your own artwork around the house adds a personal touch to your living space, and higher-quality paintings contribute to the lot's overall decoration value.
Combine gallery visits with skill practice. Visit a gallery for inspiration, then head home to paint at an easel. The creative exposure from viewing exhibits pairs well with hands-on practice.
Use galleries as social hubs. If your Zoi needs to meet new people or build relationships, galleries offer a quieter alternative to parks and nightlife venues. The crowd tends to be smaller but more approachable.
Stop by Cafe Gaon after visiting Narim. The cafe near Narim Art Gallery in Dowon is a convenient place to grab coffee and extend your outing. It gives your Zoi a relaxing activity after browsing the exhibits.
Plan visits during open hours. Both galleries operate from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily. Arriving earlier in the day gives your Zoi more time to browse before the gallery closes.
Level Art before trying to sell paintings. The Meow you earn from selling paintings scales with quality, so investing time in skill progression before listing work on the Pocket Market leads to better returns.
Try mural walls in the city too. If your Zoi enjoys the artistic atmosphere of galleries, look for mural spaces around the city. Painting murals is a faster alternative to easel work and lets your Zoi practice art in a public, social setting.
