Originating from folklore, Farmers' Painting in Huxian County (former title of Huyi District) mainly reflects the rural landscape and farmers' life. From 1958 to 1969, the comic and the romantic exaggeration of the single-line flat painting featured in the initial growing phase; from  1970 to 1980, the pursuit of authentic and refined character modeling featured in this glorious and fruitful period; from 1980 to the present, the multi-form, multi-style, multi-category art forms flourished. Following the logic of time, we can capture not only the development of Farmers' Painting, but also the shared memory of generations and the life and living of the people in Huyi.

As a kind of farmers' painting with the earliest origin and the most comprehensive development process in China, the Farmers' Painting of Huxian County enjoys a high reputation in the country, and Huyi District is known as the "First Painting Township of China", also awarded with the "Township of Chinese Folk Art" by the Ministry of Culture in 2014. Over the past 60 years, Farmers' Painting in Huxian County has been deeply rooted in Guanzhong area and integrated into Guanzhong folk arts and techniques, continuously developing and growing.

Last year, the local government of Huyi District upgraded the overall facility of the museum, established a database of farmers' paintings through networking and information technology, and launched the VR online exhibition, so that Farmers' Painting in Huxian County could be widely publicized and promoted on a higher level.

Nowadays, the Huyi Farmers' Painting Museum has been transformed and refreshed several times, and it has become not only a venue with a great sense of artistic outlook, but also a powerful inheritance of the farmers' painting culture of Huxian County.
