San Antonio Museum of Art, San Antonio

This is a terrific collection of art and artifacts from many cultures worldwide. They frequently have special exhibits and seem to be constantly improving and renovating. Great city views from the neon-lit skybridge, and a pleasant outdoor area with restaurant and river path access. Membership is a great value at $65/year for 2 adults. The building is a historic gem, being the original Lone Star brewery, and the glass elevators are fascinating way to move between floors and see the sights.

One of the best kept secrets for a nice outing with family or friends is the San Antonio Museum of Art. The artwork and exhibits that comes through this Museum are outstanding. We try to frequent this Museum as often as we can, which is numerous times a year. Put this on your to-do list when visiting San Antonio!

I was impressed by the abundance of art forms they had to show here based on culture and viewing how art has been around for many generations goes to show that it has definitely changed. It's impressive and I definitely would love to come back. Really giant aesthetic sort of elevator that did scare me in the beginning but was still awesome

The museum has hours with free admittance on Sundays and Tuesdays. My group went on a Sunday. The selection of exhibitions caught me off guard. They had pieces from Ancient Rome, Oceania, early Bronze Age artifacts, and an exhibit on early Texan and Latin American exhibitions. Even though the museum is undergoing renovations, I recommend it.

Nice collection, Horrible lighting. Many objects are behind glass with overhead lights on the OUTSIDE of the display case. This results in a horrible glare making it difficult to see the object displayed.
