This museum is located in an old 18th-century house in the historic center known as the Casa de los Siete Pueblos.

The museum was conceived as a tribute and appreciation to the artist and writer Fernando del Paso for donating his works to the University of Colima.

The exhibition consists of approximately 2,350 pieces, including sculptures, drawings, paintings, poems, engravings, and models. Additionally, there are photographs and videos showcasing the author's life.

This space is also used for the creation, experimentation, and promotion of emerging art proposals, primarily by young creators.
