Ticho House, situated in Jerusalem's downtown area, was one of the first houses in Jerusalem built outside the Old City walls. Named for Dr. Avraham Ticho and his wife, the beloved painter Anna Ticho, the house was bequeathed by the latter with all of its collections and its library to the people of the city to serve as a public center for art.

Ticho House hosts a permanent exhibition of Anna Ticho's works – mostly Jerusalem landscapes in pencil and charcoal – as well as temporary exhibitions showcasing the works of contemporary Israeli artists and works from the collection of the Israel Museum. Ticho House is an off-site venue of the Israel Museum, Jerusalem.
