The He&Art Museum is housed in the former office building of the British American Tobacco Company, constructed in 1928. Now nearly a century old, the building remains well preserved and has been listed as a historic building of Shenyang. In 2023, the Shenyang Shenhe District Government undertook restoration and reinforcement of this elegant century-old structure, revitalizing it and transforming it into the He&Art Museum. The former “British American Tobacco” site now presents itself to the public in a completely new identity, serving not only as a witness to the city’s history but also as a participant in urban renewal.

The main body of the He&Art Museum consists of two two-story Western-style buildings of nearly identical structure and form. Arranged symmetrically, one to the east and one to the west, they are connected on the second floor by a corridor, forming a unified whole. The first floor primarily houses a cultural and creative shop, a café, and office areas, while the second and third floors serve as art exhibition spaces.
