Been looking forward to getting to see the museum. It is ran by volunteers at this time so they have cut the hours back. But I really enjoyed the displays and learning about the cultures. I would recommend it to anyone who would enjoy learning about the many different types of Asians that help make up our community. I have learned a lot.

My wife and I enjoyed our visit. Ive been to other Asian museums and was satisfied with this one. They have a bit of everything and the staff is eager and friendly to any questions you have.

We were disappointed that the museum was not fully operational. The second floor was not opened bc it had been damaged by harvey. There was no family activities for kids. There was not much to see just artifacts randomly placed on the first floor. We were a bit annoyed that we still had to pay an entrance fee. Save your time and money go to the Selena museum instead.

Made the trip to Corpus with specific intentions on visiting this museum. We noted that it wasnt open until 11, so decided to hit a Thrift shop to pass some time. We arrived back at the Asian Culture Museum around 11:20 to find it closed! How disappointing.I see at least one other traveler had a similar experience. What a waste to have these wonderful cultural exhibits and not be professional enough to have them open during the posted hours of operation.Maybe they should take the hours off the website and just say call to see if were open. At least then people wouldnt have an expectation that they would actually be open. Very professional operation.

Rich Asian history. New exhibit of South Korea was interesting. It is a self guided tour but Chester was very helpful and knowledgeable in answering all my questions. Donations are greatly appreciated otherwise $6 for adults is admission.

Commonly referred to as the hidden Gem of Corpus, the Texas State Museum of Asian cultures has several interesting exhibits. You can take a self guided tour of the facility and ask the museum manager questions if you have them. They also have a nice giftshop with lots of great items for sale. It is definitely a TO SEE place while in Corpus.If you dont want to feel rushed or crowded, I highly recommend taking this relaxing tour. And, if you purchase several items, you can ask the manager if a multi-item discount is available:-)

This stop waa actually planned on our trip. We looked up hours of operation amd every thing just to get there and find it closed. After leaving disappointed we spoke to some locals and surrounding businesses who informed us that they do not follow any schedule and open and close when they choose if they open at all. This is just bad business practice
