The Popular Art Museum is a museum in Lisbon dedicated to the folk and decorative arts of Portugal, housed at 202 Avenida Brasília. The building's interior features mural compositions by decorator-painters including Carlos Botelho, Eduardo Anahory, Estrela Faria, Manuel Lapa, and Paulo Ferreira, each representing distinct regions of the country. The museum was designated a Monument of Public Interest in 2012, recognising the cultural weight of both its collection and its painted interiors.

The collection spans a broad range of Portuguese material culture, from ceramic objects and popular jewellery to musical instruments, wickerwork, textiles, costumes, and embroidery. Agricultural tools and miniatures of traditional boats and carts round out the display, giving a grounded picture of rural and coastal life across Portugal. The museum is fully wheelchair accessible.
