This museum is almost in front of the Negros Provincial Capitol in Bacolod City. It serves as the provincial museum of Negros Occidental, which was opened on March 16, 1996, at the Provincial Capitol Building. In May 2003, it was transferred to its current location, which is the former Agricultural Building. The Agricultural Extension Building was built in 1941 and was renovated in 1991.

The location of Negros Museum is easy to find. From Manila: Take a direct hour-long flight to Bacolod-Silay International Airport. At the airport, take a taxi or a car booking app that will take 30 to 40 minutes to travel to the museum. Or, take a RoRo, which usually takes 20 hours to the port in the city. Then, take a Taxi to the museum.
How I reached this place is the most economical: I took a short walk to the airport's main gate, then rode in a tricycle going to the highway. At the highway, beside BDO take a van going to Bacolod Terminal, then take a jeep going to the Provincial Capitol. Negros Museum is almost in front of the capitol.
