The Contemporary Austin

The Contemporary Austin is Austin, Texas's primary community art museum, consisting of two primary locations and an art school. The Contemporary Austin reflects the spectrum of contemporary art through exhibitions, commissions, education, and the collection.

You can pay admission at one location and get access to both on the same day. The downtown location, the Jones Center, is a sprawling, airy space with rotating exhibitions. The Jones Center features new works by some of the most innovative artists working today, in every medium imaginable. The other site, Laguna Gloria, is primarily an outdoor exhibition space. The lush fauna throughout the Laguna Gloria grounds serves as a beautiful backdrop for large sculptures and other outdoor art.
