San Antonio Art
Scene
There
are the usual institutions like San Antonio Museum of Art, ArtPace, Blue
Star Contemporary Art Center and the Mc Nay Museum, but here are some of
the "you need to know someone to know about them" alternative
spaces. Here is a map for you to print out and bring with you on your
visit to San Antonio. If you live here and don't know about them, don't
be a stranger.
Keep in mind most of these spaces are by appointment after the opening
so you will need to call ahead in most cases but they are worth the
extra effort.
