The moody patio in front is a nice spot to sit and read a book. The Blanton Museum is home to Medieval European/Spanish/American art pieces. The store has unique art designs, a bit pricy. You can rsvp online for free entrance on Tuesdays.
A beautiful art museum with lots of great works. I'm not typically a museum person, but this offered enough interesting exhibits in a small enough space that kept my little philistine brain occupied and mostly happy while my partner, who is an art person, took her time gazing at each painting or sculpture. Plus, because we showed up on a Wednesday, entry was free. Can't beat that.
The museum is well done, quiet and decently sized. Their collection is not huge, but there is plenty to see. We enjoyed the late hours on Saturday. Appreciated the free locker and clean bathrooms. Staff were friendly and kind.
Worth the trip on the free admission Tuesday’s! Relatively small museum with a great gift shop for unique + high quality pieces. Front desk staff and docents were all super friendly. Buildings architecture is gorgeous and there’s a great shaded park to sit at near the entrances for a coffee break or picnic lunch.
My visit to the Blanton Museum of Art was an inspiring and enjoyable experience. The museum’s collection is beautifully curated, offering a rich blend of classical, modern, and contemporary works. I especially appreciated the thoughtfully designed galleries and the striking architecture, which added to the overall atmosphere. You could easily spend about couple hours at the museum. Whether you’re an art enthusiast or a casual visitor, the Blanton is a must-see destination in Austin.
