The Art Museum of South Texas combines visual art with a distinctive waterfront architectural setting in Corpus Christi. It offers a cultural counterpoint to nearby marine attractions, with changing exhibitions giving repeat visitors new reasons to return.

Look at the current exhibition program before arriving and allow time to appreciate the building's relationship to the water. Confirm visiting arrangements directly with the museum, especially for separately scheduled events or activities.
