Austin


This museum operates two separate sites. The Jones Center, downtown, features rotating exhibits representing new artists, spreading through two gallery floors plus the two-tier Moody Rooftop, an open-air event space with great city views. The Laguna Gloria (3809 W 35th St) is a 1916 Italianate villa on the shores of Lake Austin that holds temporary exhibits plus an engaging sculpture park.
