Housed in the original 1880s Lone Star Brewery, which is a piece of art itself, the San Antonio Museum of Art is off Broadway St just north of downtown. San Antonio’s strong Latino influence is reflected in an impressive trove of Latin American art, including Spanish colonial, Mexican and pre-Columbian – one of the most comprehensive collections in the US.
But it’s more than just Latin America that’s represented here: the museum has a little of everything, from Egyptian antiquities to contemporary abstracts, as well as an impressive Asian wing with a collection of Chinese ceramics, paintings, decorative items and more.
