    As a soon to be San Antonio resident, I have been wanting to check out the art scene and decided to make a little rainy Valentine’s Day trip during our outing downtown. The museum has 3 levels and takes military discount along with a discount for guests of military. I pleasantly impressed w the selection of art work, highlights were some of the photography on the 1st floor, the high school student showcase in the library section, and the vibrant saddle exhibit. The rain didn’t allow us to enjoy the sculpture garden outdoors but definitely recommend for a nice outing if you’re downtown by the river walk.

    Absolute wonder of a museum. Classic and contemporary artists. We can on the free “Day of the Cowboy”, but there is usually an admission price for tix. This place is worth it; the art and artifacts are worth going again and again.

    I have mixed emotions- by the name and advertising I thought it was going to be handmade by Mr Ice Cream. That wasn’t the case (wink). All of the ice cream was blue bell (smirk face). Don’t get me wrong- the Blue Bell was on point, just not what I was expecting. I had the salted Carmel brownie and Hubs had the red velvet ice cream in a (pre-made, out of a box) waffle cone. The service was eh, the atmosphere cool; however your best bet is to take it outside and people watch on the Riverwalk

    An absolutely wonderful museum! Very informative with lots of important artifacts and artworks. I was very impressed. They even had intriguing questions and interactive pieces to help you think critically about art. I had a fantastic visit from beginning to end.
