We all had a really great time. Admission was free and they were showing a ton of really great ceramics. Dont forget to donate.

This was a quaint little museum featuring lots of state/regional artists. If youre hoping for any big name pieces, you wont find them here. If youre looking for a nice little activity for your family or for a date, this museum is perfect! Also, admission is currently free due to covid. There werent many people when we went which made social distancing easy!

This museum was so AMAZING to say the least. Me and my wife loved it it was so informative. The staff was so helpful and well knowledged on items. Very interesting exhibits and 2 Flores of just pure happiness. I recommend u go if ur in the area. The admission fee was very cheapVery worth the visit.

Art Thursday is every week and always a great experience even with my 8 and 10 year old. Every 1st Saturday is Family Day which is full of many great activities and crafts. Truly happy the Museum has a fun family option in this town.

Had a lot of fun. The wall stone sculptures were amazing and very realistic. The employees treated me with a lot of respect. Very interesting items sold in the store, like beaded jewelry, books by local authors, and T-shirts. Looking forward to coming back in the next event.

The San Angelo museum of fine arts was a neat place right on the river-walk downtown. The surrounding area is really nice. The museum itself had a womens voice through the roaring 20s as well as some pieces of art, primarily sculptures. The admission was fair and overall it would definitely make a fun day to tour the museum and walk up and down the river walk

Went June 2020 during the ceramics exhibit. Lots of interesting pieces. Admission was free, so that was a plus, as well.

They had an interesting roaring 20s womens voice exhibit as well as some neat art pieces. The outside is a beautiful Riverwalk.

The museum was lovely, though a volunteer will follow you around which feels a little strange. We loved free Family Art Thursday and will definitely be back! Blown away by all the materials available for the children and the wonderful studio. The setting on the river is magnificent. We walked all over before heading in and it all made for a really nice day. Lots of picture opportunities outside.

A lovely piece of beauty in a rather desolate area of the state. Looking forward to going back for more visits.

The facility is well done. Displays were marked well and held nice pieces that were interesting. As I understand it they rotate in new collections (themes?) periodically. Staff was friendly and available without being intrusive, but stayed close and were ready to answer any questions.

You wouldn’t expect a small city like ours to have such a great museum of fine arts, but this little gem is really something! The exhibits are always excellent, and very well done. Sometimes we get exhibits that surpass excellence and take my breath away. Plus, their guest-artist music concerts in the auditorium are delightful. (And the free hors d’oeuvres at intermission are always elegant and yummy.) I have lived in many metropolitan areas, and I have to say that this museum deserves its fine reputation. I still can’t believe how lucky we are to have it.

Great museum. Helps that its a block from my house.

Review №21

People downstairs were very friendly and helpful. Displays were great. Would have been better if the lady would have been a guide instead of watching us as if we would try to harm anything in the display. And just a note, it was 3 adults, one art loving teen, 2 toddlers and a 9 month old - not a wild bunch, but rather a family of 4 generations trying to share art appreciation.

This is a fun and super affordable place to visit. Very well maintained and they bring in great exhibits and artists. I wish there was more to see though. If youre not careful, you can blow through the whole museum in 30 minutes.

Such a grand museum in a town this size is unprecedented. In any other city you would pay $20 just for entry but here it is a steal at $5. New exhibits regularly. Outstanding examples of art from the local scene and around the world. Come quickly and often.

The museum is always worth a visit. The exhibits are always interesting and ever changing. The facility is a very interesting building....clean and user friendly. There are several areas of the building which can be reserved for private use such as concerts, meetings, banquets, parties, etc. The staff is always available for info.

I wish the curators would use the historic art of West Texas, vice tring to shove high society modern crud at us. The History of Womens Underwear...? Really?

Review №54

Not recommended for kids. Its more for the artist fanatics than the general public. We were planning on having hands-on experience with the workshops they offer, but it was cancelled for the day so our only option was to see the exhibits. We were in and out in 10 min. The roof top view of the river was my favorite part.

Review №62

The building is beautiful, but members of the staff can be disrespectful, if you look younger than 25. One of the employees snapped at me when I picked up a plate I was considering buying from the gift shop. She very rudely told me dont touch. You might break it and cant afford it if you do. The plate was $25 dollars! If I broke it, I could very easily afford to replace it. That experience left a very bad taste in my mouth. We were there on military day out and I realize we all looked young, but I dont appreciate being talked to like a 5 year old. I dont tolerate age discrimination and will not be returning.

My family has really come to love this place. Their Second Saturday events are always heavily anticipated: hands-on crafts, food crafts, scavenger hunts. The employees (volunteers?) are always so incredibly nice, we just love it!
