San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts

Director Howard, Supervisor Joel, & Hostess Eva provided an ideal setting our son’s & daughter-in-law’s Rehearsal Dinner reception. All details/​transactions/​requirements were well established & easy to follow, & Howard/​Joel/​Eva were all there — friendly, helpful, responsive, & patient. That 3d floor patio has a great view of the river walk. Excellent place for a gathering.

It was a rainy and windy day in San Angelo. Perfect for visiting a museum. But this visit was kinda disappointing!
From the outside, the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts looks really nice! Modern architecture, nice patio outside, etc. I had no idea it would be so snoozy. Admission was $ 2 per adult, and honestly? It should be free! There’s really NOTHING to see.
The museum is only 3 floors, and the first floor consists of administrative offices. The second floor hosted a gift shop (small), a permanent exhibit (very small, 1 room) and a non-​permanent exhibit, Sacred Visions, which was essentially just a bunch of creepy religious relics. There was a pretty fountain in the middle. The third floor hosted a permanent exhibit, which also consisted of religious relics.
The entire time we were there, a docent followed us around creepily. I know docents are common in museums… but seriously? We were the ONLY people in the museum, and she was watching us like we were going to steal something. Not cool.
It’s a shame that this museum isn’t more interesting. It seems like this neck of the woods would have a lot of old culture to it.

New and clean. A good collection of art on display.
