Museum of Art serves as a forum to explore and connect with art that spans the world’s geographies, artistic periods, genres, and cultures.

Its collection contains nearly 30,000 works representing 5,000 years of history and is particularly strong in Greek and Roman antiquities, Asian art, and art of the Americas. The Nelson A. Rockefeller Latin American Art wing spans the ages from the ancient Americas to the present and includes an outstanding collection of pre-Columbian and folk art. In recent years, the Museum has placed particular emphasis on diversifying its contemporary collections to reflect the true diversity of voices shaping the trajectory of art.

This has included an emphasis on works by women artists, artists of color, and artists from San Antonio and across the state of Texas. San Antonio is the nation’s seventh-largest city and is consistently listed as one of its fastest-growing. The Museum is housed in the historic Lone Star Brewery on the Museum Reach of San Antonio’s River Walk and is committed to promoting the rich cultural heritage and life of the city.
