Culture converges at the Art Museum of South Texas (1902 N.

The three-story building is unmistakable, with bright white concrete walls and 13 rooftop pyramids overlooking the bay.
Inside, you’ll find several galleries showcasing the museum’s 1,300 works of art, primarily paintings and sculpture representing the Americas with a focus on Texas, Mexico, and the Southwest. The museum also contains an interactive kids playroom, classrooms, studios, a gift shop, and an auditorium.
