Blanton Museum of Art
About Us
The Blanton welcomes and engages all visitors by offering personal, extraordinary experiences that connect art and ideas, reaching within and beyond campus to stimulate the thriving, creative community that is Austin, Texas. Located across the street from the Bob Bullock Texas History Museum, where Congress Avenue meets The University of Texas, the new Blanton is home to an inspiring collection of over 17,000 works of art, recognized for its European Old Master paintings, modern and contemporary American and Latin American art, and an encyclopedic collection of prints and drawings. At the edge of the university campus in downtown Austin, the new museum complex frames dramatic views of the State Capitol to the south and the university to the north, building a gateway between the university and the city. The Blanton is the largest university art museum in the country and the third largest museum in Texas.
