🗣️ Museu de Arte do Sul do Texas: Opiniões
Experiência fantástica: Beautiful view beach, and enjoy walking around in the area.
Experiência fantástica: First visit. Very impressive Spent quite some time there
Experiência positiva: I expected more exhibit and details. The security keeps walking by and telling us not to touch anything while we are not touching anything at all. That's pretty annoyed. I truly understand the reason behind it, but common it's too annoyed to even enjoy the rest of the exhibit.
Experiência fantástica: My wife and I love the Art Museum of South Texas. It is a wonderful place to escape to for a few hours. An on the first Friday of the month it's free of charge.
Experiência fantástica: Cute modern art place!
Experiência fantástica: Beautiful museum with great exhibits!
Experiência fantástica: Much larger than I expected, a beautiful way to enrich your eyes in the a/c on a hot day!
Experiência fantástica: We went to 3rd Thursday community night and had an amazing experience with our out of town friends.
Experiência negativa: The art on display was meh today. Different strokes for different folks, perhaps. However, the low rating is overwhelmingly due to the security guard. She was very off-putting.
Experiência fantástica: Small museum with a lot to offer. The exhibits are beautifully curated. It was a fantastic surprise to see a Dali in person here. The display of the student's work upstairs was a nice touch. Lovely lunch spot on the grounds. And you can't beat the view. Wasn't sure I was going to stop while visiting the area, glad I did!
Experiência positiva: Some good landscapes by a local artist and sponsored by King Ranch. Check out the cafe Elizabeth's for Turkish coffee and desserts
Experiência positiva: Nice array of King Ranch oil paintings were throughout the first floor area !
Experiência fantástica: A beautiful learning experience everyone must go.
Experiência fantástica: Best experience I had, I even got to see dolphins
Experiência fantástica: Really nice art museum. Friendly and helpful staff.
Experiência fantástica: A favorite since I was a child, friendly staff, and beautiful art. Don’t forget, students have free admission!
Experiência positiva: It’s a nice place to visit, the town has very tiny to do but this is one of the places that should be visited when you are in CC
Experiência positiva: The museum has a beautiful location on the bay. It's a very nice building with kind workers. The museum was smaller than I thought it would be...you can make it through in an hour or so, and the "photography is art" exhibit was a little underwhelming, in my opinion. However, like most arts, it's subjective and you may love it. That said, the permanent exhibits were beautiful...I especially liked the Spanish/Texan/Mexican art area and the sculptures. Upstairs they had work from local school children and some are very talented. It was fun to see what the local kids can do too!
Experiência positiva: Nice building and location, near the aircraft carrier Lexington and the harbor bridge. Also close to the aquarium and the science museum. This museum is photography centric but has some painting, mixed media, and sculptures as well. Here is currently a display of high school students' art. There is a cafe onsite with views of the bay. Admission is $10 and $8 for seniors. We spent about an hour there.
Experiência positiva: It was nice to walk around and see the art. There isn't many, but it's a great space and not very expensive. Wasn't busy and we went in Saturday afternoon.
Experiência fantástica: Great space. Beautiful museum! Keep up the good work.
We agree! A talk with Wilhelmi for Texas Talks Art can be found on our YouTube page :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g0L6M_B_iY
Experiência fantástica: Beautiful building, setting and grounds. The building is handicapped accessible. The interior space flowed well and accentuated the beautiful art.
Experiência fantástica: Some the BEST Photography Art in South Texas. And the restaurant Elizabeth's??!!!! O!!! M!!! G!!!! The food is presented like a work of Art and tastes like a Masterpiece!!!! They get the Royal hand wave.........(wait a minute. I'm not British). They get a South Texas Grito: HHHHighhhhYAaaaEEEEHAHAHA!!
Experiência fantástica: Indulge in the cultural richness of the Corpus Christi Art Museum, a must-visit gem. Enjoy free entry every first Friday of the month and treat yourself to stunning views of the bridge and the USS Lexington. Dive deeper into Corpus Christi's top attractions by exploring our channel, Mr. S Travel Quest, for an insightful guide on the city's best experiences.
Experiência positiva: Would have enjoyed more variety of styles & mediums & more art that actually seems like art. There was a plethora of abstract new age stuff that was just confusing.

Experiência fantástica: Great experience. They were switching exhibits but the tickets were half off
A War! Thank you for understanding that exhibitions must be switched to show off the collection. We hope to see you again for another great experience!
Experiência fantástica: My recent visit to the Art Museum of South Texas in Corpus Christi was an enriching and uplifting experience that left me truly inspired. Nestled along the picturesque shoreline of the Corpus Christi Bay, this cultural gem offers a captivating journey through the vibrant world of contemporary and regional art.

Wow Derrick, we are blown away by your incredible review. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us, and we are thrilled to learn you had a five-star time. We hope to get the chance to see you in our galleries again one day. Thank you!
Experiência fantástica: Those of you who are art lovers should not miss this. I actually found it to be a perfect indoor activity during rainy days. The admission fee is 10$ and you can purchase groupon coupons for a reduced price. Every first Friday of the month, there is free admission to the museum. Enjoy this wonderful walk through the history and art of the past!
Thank you for your review Meera! Visitors can also enjoy free admission 5:30-9pm every 3rdThursday of each month. All day every Second Saturday of each month, and quarterly every Family Day. We appreciate your review and visits.
Experiência positiva: Simple and serene with a fashionable restaurant and great views of the harbor. The dual entrances are a bit confusing. Some better signage would be helpful. Plenty of parking on both sides of the museum. Community friendly with lots of showcases and complimentary days.
Hello Matt and Mandy, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand your concerns with the multiple building set up and are currently working on signage to clarify this issue as we speak. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you again and earn that last star. Thank you.
Experiência negativa: The art on display while different from years past was no improvement. Admittance is usually free on the first Friday of each month.

Experiência fantástica: This place has grown and become so much nicer over the years. It is a large, open space with great events and a great showroom
Thank you, Cayce. We are happy to know you had a five-star time in our space. Hope to have you visit again soon!
Experiência fantástica: It is a great place to visit, especially for the kids
Thank you Zahed, we are so happy to know you and the kids had a five-star time!
Experiência fantástica: Beautiful brutalist building. Go see the Christmas tree forest on display right now.
Aw Mark, thank you!
Experiência fantástica: We went to see the "Christmas Tree" forest. It was beautiful. Such talented students!
Thank you Jeannette, the students really do always surprise us with their creations!
Experiência fantástica: It's free Nov. & Dec. So you can't beat that. Xmas trees are on display. Overall it something to do, get kids out the house and it's free!!!
Just a girl in this world trying to let people know about the benefits of visiting the Art Museum, and we are here for that. Thank you!
Experiência positiva: A friend of mine and I visited the Christmas tree display.. they're quite cute. A lot of them were made by younger children, but they all appear to have been made by school children. As we left we asked how do we vote and the person at the front counter wasn't sure.
Hi Barb, we are happy to hear you enjoyed the Christmas Tree Forest: A Reading Wonderland. A tradition spanning several decades now, geared toward building interest in literature for children, through art and illustration. Voting was made possible through a QR code on the title wall of the exhibition, as well as on our website and facebook. Hopefully next year you'll join us again and can cast your vote.
Experiência fantástica: Interesting art museum. Eclectic collections. Very enjoyable.
Thank you Cheryl!
Experiência fantástica: Enjoy the time spent every time I am here!
Aw, Gardner thank you so much!
Experiência positiva: Visited the museum on a few occasions and it was always a good experience. The staff are nice and there have been several nice pieces displayed here. It’s also a great place to host events. There are at least three parking lots nearby you can use, which makes it very convenient for visitors, especially on busier days.
Thank you Laro, we hope to have you back in our galleries and earn that fifth star. Until then we appreciate your review.
Experiência fantástica: Stumbled upon this when (one of few) walking along the esplanade in the heat. What a great surprise ! Air conditioning waa cool, but so was the artwork ! We also surprised to have bonus of free entry, but have a feeling that may only have been case for September - not sure, so worth checking
Stuart! We are happy to hear we saved you from the South Texas heat. You also said one of our favorite taglines. We have several free admission days throughout the year (1st Fridays, and evenings of 3rd Thursdays, and beginning in 2024 2nd Saturdays) as well as four Family Days a year. September saw free admission thanks to the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Latino and our hosting a special exhibition of theirs. Hope you'll join us again for a cool down and a look around.
Experiência positiva: Didn't care for the art not really family friendly glad it was free to get in. The Danvers and singer were great though

Experiência fantástica: I ride with a bike group sponsored by CCLED. One of our stops in our route. Haven't been there in a couple of yrs but still great visit. If anyone can make it there.
Thank you Ramon!
Experiência negativa: Very small but still a nice stop

Experiência fantástica: Beautiful place right on the coast, the museum also has a restaurant. It houses some very unusual art pieces, it does not take very long to get through!
Thank you D!
Experiência fantástica: It's small but has a chill vibe. I'd go again with a new exhibit. I went for the "Native Impressions" in July 2023.
Small but chill was our nickname growing up ;). Thank you for sharing your time with us Sam, our next traveling exhibition will be here October 13!
Experiência fantástica: Loved this art museum, a great place to spend some hours looking at all the arts and architecture of the place. Every first Friday of each month the entrance is free so that was definitely a plus!
Alejandra, thank you for sharing your time with us and we love that you took advantage of First Friday free admission! Third Thursdays from 5:30-9pm are also free. We hope to see you in our galleries again soon.
Experiência positiva: The art that was presented was awesome! I am disappointed that the literal whole other art building was closed. Due to some a/c issue. Which should’ve been mentioned, because it makes it a short little walk through. Couldn’t even see everything due to the other building being closed.
Jade, thank you so much for your visit to the Art Museum of South Texas. We appreciate your feedback and know that we take the concerns of our visitors seriously. We hope you'll have a chance to visit us again when we are back on our "A" game and allow us to make up those last two stars.

Experiência fantástica: The glass art was so beautiful, you can really tell the skill of the artists due to the intricate designs of the glass sculptures. I also really just loved the paintings. I forgot how wonderful art could be, but this museum reminded me why I love creating.
First of all, this is the most incredibly well written and beautifully worded review we've ever seen. You must be a Master Puppeteer because you've pulled on all of our heartstrings. Thank you for spending time at the Art Museum of South Texas and sharing your experience of discovery and inspiration. Please keep creating always, and we hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: loved the atmosphere of the art museum, the lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful. We saw the "Cheech" latin American art exhibit and the blown glass art had amazing detail. The only downside was the other building was under renovation so there were no exhibits up at the time. Can't wait to return and view another beautiful traveling art on display.
Sedell! Thank you for sharing your time with us, it means the most. We are glad you had a chance to see Collidoscope and hope you have the opportunity to return catch our next exhibitions opening in Oct.
Experiência fantástica: Very Beautiful I don't remember the last time I was in there however. I took advantage of the program they had this month. Nothing beats free ☺️ thank you ❤️
Hi Maggie, we are glad you made it for a long overdue visit. We are free until the end of the year thanks to H-E-B so hopefully we will see you again!
Experiência fantástica: We went to see the new inflatable art display. Was not disappointed. Great views of the bay as well.
We are thrilled you had a five-star time with us Jay! We hope to see you in the galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: Not a large museum. Loved the exhibits. Sculpted art glass was outstanding.
We are small but mighty! We hope. Thank you for spending your time with us Gracie, we appreciate your visit and review.
Experiência positiva: This place was pretty cool. They had a few installments being worked on but we had fun and saw some pretty cool stuff.
Hi Sam, thank you for the flattery, we hope to earn that last star from you.We hope to earn that last star from you one of these trips. You can always let us know how we can improve by contacting our Community Services Coordinator, Clayton Reuter, via email at [email protected] or by phone (361) 825-3513.
Experiência fantástica: Excellent Museum with great exhibits! We thoroughly enjoyed our day exploring the art pieces.
Francisco your review was too kind! We are happy to know you enjoyed your time with us and we hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência positiva: Good for art lovers..
Thank you for your review Yogish. Hopefully we will see you in our galleries again and we will have the chance to earn that last star.
Experiência fantástica: It was very nice visiting the art museum for the 1st time. My daughter's art was up for everyone to see
Aw Blanca we are so glad you had a nice time with us and thankful your daughter's work in the Visionarios exhibition is being seen. We hope she will continue to enter the Youth Artist Contest and we continue to see you in our galleries.
Experiência positiva: Soo cool that it was free. The awesome security guard lady told us that we could go ahead and see more of the museum and such. She was a great and tremendous help.
Thank you Jesslyn! We are happy to hear you were helped by our awesome security. Did you know every First Friday of each month we have free admission and extended hours thanks to Frost? We hope to see you in our galleries again and earn that last star ;)
Experiência fantástica: The Art Museum is a wonderful oasis of all things beautiful in the Coastal Bend. There’s always lots of events going on, on top of their excellent exhibits. Added benefit: always inculding programs for the kids.
Sofia! We love this review, and thank you for taking the time to let everyone know about your experience with us. We hope to always be fortunate enough to create programing for the kids.
Experiência fantástica: It’s been about a month and I can’t wait to return after the new exhibit is in place! I love this art museum and the employees are always so kind and helpful. I went while it was free thanks to H‑E‑B.
Aw Lauren, your review made our day. We are thrilled you took advantage of free admission last year. Looking forward to seeing you in the galleries this year. Our next two traveling exhibitions open Jan. 20 on view through April 9, 2023.
Experiência positiva: Cool place... just don't take your kid's when summer camp is there... they see the cool stuff and we weren't allower...

Experiência positiva: We visit the Art Museum often. It is beautiful and we love the art work there. It has a Cafe with views of the water and I could sit there forever and gaze out at the water.
Carrie, we are thrilled to know you enjoy your time at AMST and Elizabeth's Cafe. Hopefully we have the chance to earn that fifth star from you soon.
Experiência fantástica: Such a cool place, and free until the end of the year! This was the 3rd time I've been since they started doing the free visits. You have to see the movie portion of the exibit...so impressive
Thank you for the review and your kind words X we are thrilled you enjoyed your time and found the State of the Art: Locate exhibition piece impressive.
Experiência fantástica: Some of the art pieces catch your attention. Good collection. You can cover the museum in about an hour. USS Lexington ship is close by. You could combine your trip cover long both these places.
Thank you for your review Satyam.
Experiência fantástica: Nice place to go with your family
Experiência fantástica: Such a wonderful atmosphere! Amazing views and amazing art! Good fun all around! And third Thursdays are always a blast!
Charlotte, thank you so much for the compliments. We are thrilled to know you had a 5-star time and are having a blast at 3rdThursdays- you are why we do what we do.
Experiência fantástica: Beautiful collections! It's definitely worth checking out. We were visiting Corpus from out of town but I think it's something locals would even enjoy for an afternoon.
Such a lovely review, thank you, Jessica. We are grateful you had time to visit with us while in Corpus and hope we have the chance to see you in our galleries again one day.
Experiência negativa: Half of the exhibits have no information - artist, medium, etc all missing. Feels disrespectful to the artists. Dehumidifiers everywhere with full buckets, also not respecting the art. One painting (also no info) completely crooked. Place just doesn't feel like a legit museum that cares about the collection. Maybe I was expecting too much having gone to art museums in other cities, but this place feels very unprofessional and it was honestly a waste of time.
Hello Sarah, thank you so much for your visit and review of the Art Museum of South Texas. We appreciate your feedback and know that we take the concerns of our visitors seriously. We are currently deep into renovations of our historic Philip Johnson building. Unfortunately we can't be sure how each gallery will be impacted until renovation in the area begins and so you caught the de-installation of the Singer gallery. However, if you would like to discuss these matters further, please call Clay Reuter, AMST Community Services Coordinator, at (361) 825-3513 to talk about your concern or send an email to [email protected]
Experiência positiva: EPIC! They let us in free and 30 minutes before closing there is no one there so its basically your own museum. Most pieces arts are paintings and relatively new. The place is very well kept and spacious so it feels nice to walk around in.
We are so glad you had an epic time with us EP. Feel free to let us know how we can earn that last start from you. Hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência negativa: The art was cool. The way my children were spoken to upon entrance was unsettling. The beautiful Cafe was open ... the doors were open. The designers card was available but it was not actually open for service. I gracefully finished my Coca Cola while being vetted by the lovely young woman in the gift shop about my options for discarding my beverage. My handsome partner commented that he felt like we just got booked for county jail and I responded yes, no wonder this place is packed. It was not fun.

If you would like to discuss this matter further, please contact our Community Services Coordinator, Clayton Reuter, via email at [email protected] or by phone (361) 825-3513.
Experiência positiva: It was in the middle of resetting most of the displays so there wasn't much to see. The lady was more than nice about it and explained it. She even gave us a discount. We'll try again next year.
Hi Shaun, we are sorry for the inconvenience. Hopefully your next visit we have the opportunity to earn that fifth star from you. We recommend following us on social media like Instagram and Facebook in order to get more real time updates on what is going on at the Museum. Thank you for your visit!
Experiência fantástica: Fridays were free, art was unusual and interesting. Loved the various student art that they displayed. Right next to the beach area of corpus Bay so we also enjoyed a long walk.
Thank you A & B Moen. The First Friday of every month is always free admission and extended hours to the Art Museum thanks to Frost Bank. We are happy to know you were able to take advantage of this time and that you had a 5-star experience with us.
Experiência positiva: Edit: Updated to four stars for receiving a response, and clarified some details. It's okay. Nice building and friendly staff, but the art is... meh. I guess that's subjective though. For free entry until the end of 2022, it's worth it. Not really worth the typical cost otherwise. The restaurant is amazing though, great views and good food. It's only open for a few hours, however. Got some snotty looks from other visitors for, I assume, being in T-shirt and jeans.
Hello Richard,I am so sorry for the less than stellar experience and please know that your complaints are heard. The artwork and exhibitions change several times throughout the year. As for the "snotty looks" were these from AMST workers? As the staff member primarily responsible for visitor experience, please accept my sincere apology on behalf of the museum and do not hesitate to reach out to me by phone (361) 825-3513 or email [email protected] ReuterCoordinator of Community Services
Experiência positiva: Nice - free to get in… Feast for your eyes and a rest from tech… enjoy!!!
we love your review C Volk.
Experiência positiva: It was a great experience. The art was amazing, but I'm not gonna lie it was really short. It's a small museum so it goes by very quick but not a bad experience for $8.
We too wish there was more of us to go around, Louis! Hopefully one day we will have a second expansion. Until then we hope to see you in our galleries again as our permanent collection exhibitions change every 3-6 months. Thank you for your review, we hope we have the chance to earn the fifth star.
Experiência negativa: Small museum with inconsequential works, some of which appeared quite amateurish. Not worth a visit.
Experiência positiva: ARMST is a fun place to visit. It’s sits on the bay. Good view of passing ships from the restaurant which serves alcohol if you want it. Food is pricey and meager. The exhibitions of art are always interesting. Wish they’d change them more often. They’re closed on Monday. Head toward the playhouse and go left to find the parking lot. Enjoy! ♂️
Thank you for your honest review Stephen, we are glad you were able to visit us. We wish we had the staffing and/or the space to have more of our robust permanent collection out- but we work with what we've got. We hope to see you at AMST again and the opportunity to earn that fifth star.
Experiência positiva: The inflatable exhibit was great! The building had some minor construction going on but nothing bad! The homeless camp down by the water needs to be cleaned up by city and disinfected the smell is horrible! It’s not the museum problem but it’s by the entrance below the temporary metal ramp! This should not be a place where people are living
Experiência fantástica: The museum is free, maybe on every third Thursday. We are members so that doesn’t really matter to us. This is a beautiful building. It has a great restaurant in it. The restaurant has wonderful views of the port. The art was interesting. We love to go down there every so often.
Thank you so much Ann. We appreciate your support and continued membership and look forward to seeing you in our galleries.
Experiência positiva: Not much of a collection but the settings and the building are quite nice. I especially enjoyed the painting titled "White man's mistake" from James Robinson
Hi Rolf, thank you for taking the time to review your experience with us. Did you know we have almost 2000 works of art in our permanent collection? Sadly we can't show them all at one time but it makes for a dynamic exhibition schedule. We hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: I visited with my 3 girls. Be sure to check what is on display if you have squeemish kiddos. The time we went, art by a set of Hispanic brothers was being showcased and some of the pieces were graphic for my daughter's taste. Nothing to give them nightmares. It was a fun educational experience I love art! The museum is very nice and the staff are friendly.
Aw Brandy, we are glad you and your girls had a 5-star time with us. We recommend looking at our website under "exhibitions" as any warnings of what you'll see are posted. Please always keep your love for art alive, and we hope to see you and the girls in our galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: Their featured exhibit is a bit jaw dropping weird, and I will say I was in awe and kinda freaked out by the art. Aside from the featured exhibit the rest of the art there was beautiful and art loving ppl will enjoy also.
Thank you for your review Mae! We are beyond thrilled to see you let the art freak you out and still have a 5-star time with us. That's exactly how we feel art viewing should be. We hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: What a fantastic collection! Incredible architecture. Great children's programming
Laurence thank you for your amazing review! We hope to provide more great children's programming in 2023.
Experiência fantástica: Thank you HEB for the wonderful opportunity to attend this lovely venue for free. Stunning & whimsical exhibits (look at those lawn chairs!), I enjoyed viewing exhibits from the second level. The aroma from the restaurant was divine...
We are thrilled to know you had a five-star time with us JM, thank you for your lovely review.
Experiência fantástica: You must stop in this place in Corpus Christi! Wonderful selection of artworks, staff is great, and the exhibits were well thought out and taken care of. Enjoy wandering around and take in the work. Don’t miss the sculptures outside!
Your incredible review will live on in our hearts and minds forever. The sculptures outside often get over looked so they thank you as well!
Experiência fantástica: My family and I love visiting the museum when we are in Corpus . Exhibits are always interesting and the staff is friendly.
Aw Eric thank you for the incredible review and we are grateful you and your family always have an awesome time with us. We hope to be around for many more family memories made in these galleries.
Experiência fantástica: I took my 14 y/o boy we had a great time. They have a giant balloon exhibit right now that's really interesting. I would post more pictures however out of respect for the artists i think you should go see them in person. Instead of me posting them on line.
Aw Jamie this review is incredible. Happy to know we had something entertaining for your 14 y/o son (never an easy task!) We hope to catch y'all in our galleries again soon. We acknowledge and thank you for your respect.
Experiência fantástica: Impressive for the space. The permanent collection was short and easy. We saw the De La Torre Brothers retro-perspective and it was AWESOME.
Thank you Tommy! our PC contains over 2000 pieces of art so know that our PC exhibitions change every 6 months or so in order to bring other works out of the vault. We hope to see you in our galleries again.
Experiência fantástica: This small museum surprised me with the amount of art on displayed! Quiet and on the water, it was a great visit!
Thank you for your review Stacy. Did you know we have nearly 2000 works of art in our permanent collection? We do what we can to have each piece on view at some point. Thrilled to know you had a 5-star time with us.
Experiência fantástica: Took my kids to experience the Warhol exhibit. Free admission for the rest of the year of 2022. Really enjoyed the printing from Norway. Surprises found in nooks and alcoves.
We are happy to hear your children had a wonderful time full of fun surprises!
Experiência fantástica: 3rd Thursdays are the best . It's nighttime with music and art with wonderful vendors. The vibes are the best. I love it and I love art !
Thank you, thank you Ronee! We hope you keep your love for art and 3rdThursday alive and we can't wait to see you at the next 3rdThursday!
Experiência positiva: Admission is free until the end of the year. Check the website just in case there are any changes. Its mainly modern art, so you will see sone unique pieces.
Thank you for your review Ana! Did you know we also have free admission every first Friday of each month, thanks to Frost? We hope to see you in our galleries again and earn that last star ;)
Experiência positiva: The Art Museum of South Texas was a very enjoyable experience! My only suggestion is that when using the map there are certain galleries that appear to have names, but unfortunately in the museum itself a lot of those galleries were not clearly labeled which made navigating with the map confusing at first. Once I got my bearings I was able to discern where I was and was a bit underwhelmed by several galleries that were empty and a lot of art work was covered with plastic for protection against window dusting. Either way, the museum was enjoyable and presented some very thought invoking pieces of art. The art by the kids was probably amongst the best displays. A lot of future talent on the horizon! Once they finish cleaning up and fill the empty galleries I would love to revisit.
Experiência positiva: Our family very much enjoyed the museum. The inflatables exhibit was fun to see. We didn't realize there was an on-site restaurant so we didn't eat there but the view from the restaurant was nice. The museum was undergoing some renovations, so part of the 2nd floor exhibits were closed. The lower level with the hands-on exhibits was also closed during our visit for spring break camps. We will go back another time to see those (and plan for lunch at the restaurant).

Experiência fantástica: This is our second trip back and it is always a good stop. They were showing school art from he area that is well worth a visit. They have a nice gift shop for those that want more information about art and supplies for kids and adults. Pictures are of blow ups from artists from the US and one from Canada.
Yay Charles! We are happy to hear your time with us is always a good stop. We hope to see you in our galleries again soon!
Experiência fantástica: The entire walk through was over an hour and I could’ve stayed there even longer just taking in all of the art & its meaning. Went on the first Friday of the month & didn’t pay to enter! Had so much fun & really enjoyed all of the rooms, especially the Native American tributes. Even got to sit outside and see the Lexington & Texas State Aquarian + saw some dolphins swimming (ALL FOR FREE!)

Experiência fantástica: A quiet gem we stumbled upon while in Corpus. They have some interesting pieces in an interesting building at the end of a nice city park off of the shore. What's not to like?
Experiência fantástica: Such a glorious place. Wonderful works displayed along with very kind people. Entry is free until the end of 2022 thanks to HEB

Experiência fantástica: Such a cool place, and free until the end of the year! This was the 3rd time I've been since they started doing the free visits. You have to see the movie portion of the exibit...so impressive
Experiência fantástica: Very nice place for lunch near the port. Great views of the bay and USS Lexington. The food was good and fresh.
