Blanton Museum of Art
We’re committed to creating a museum experience that inspires visitors to discover the unexpected about the world and themselves. Founded in 1963, the Blanton has emerged as the principal art museum for both the city of Austin and The University of Texas at Austin, with a national reputation for innovative programming and bold leadership. Our collection includes more than 22,000 artworks, with depth in modern and contemporary American and Latin American art, Italian Renaissance and Baroque paintings, and prints and drawings. We present regularly changing installations from the collection, special projects with contemporary artists, dynamic site-specific installations throughout our grounds, and major thematic exhibitions built from our pioneering scholarship and partnerships with museums worldwide. As part of our commitment to Austin and to helping shape its future, the Blanton offers education and community programs that gather and connect people, represent diverse perspectives and experiences, deepen learning and understanding, and bring joy.
