McNay Art Museum-Texas’s first museum of modern art

The McNay Art Museum, established from the collection of Marion Koogler McNay, opened to the public in 1954 as the first museum of modern art in Texas and is frequently featured in online arts coverage and photography. The museum occupies a Mediterranean-style estate and houses a notable collection of twentieth-century European and American modern art alongside contemporary and Latin American works. Images of the McNay’s architecture, galleries, and sculpture garden are commonly shared on social platforms and museum blogs.
