Never knew this art museum was here until I stumbled in one day! All exhibitions are free, including a downstairs and upstairs exhibit! Art rotates out periodically. Will be back in the future!

Exceptional! The GAC presents thought-provoking, carefully curated, contemporary exhibitions that rival any big-city museum, and its free! Housed in a gorgeous historic building, there are multiple gallery spaces on two floors. Classes for adults and children are taught by experienced artists in a large, light filled studio, and GAC has an outreach program that brings art out into the community for seniors and individuals with special needs . This is a true Galveston gem!

Both free and good. Not a destination, but if you are walking downtown, this is a very nice gallery.

I like the mission of the Galveston Arts Center and its exhibits feature local artists from around the Texas Gulf Coast region. They host the Galveston Art Walk from March to October annually and organize a lot of educational events for kids and adults at the arts center as well as in the community. Whenever a new exhibit launches, the artist would present a talk about their work and art pieces. There is a main exhibition hall on the first floor and a wine vendor, Florino, in the left corner. There are stairs on the left or in the back of the building that will take you to the second floor where there are two smaller exhibition spaces and a classroom. Admission is free and donations are welcome. I volunteer at the arts center from time to time and I love it! This building also has an interesting history, so its a plus for anyone who might be interested in Galvestons history.

Small art gallery with locally made exhibits. While we were there there were a lot of mixed media art pieces on display (as opposed to, say, paintings). The Eden display was my favorite. Carpeted stairs were a little dirty but the bathrooms were very clean. They also have a guest book that you can leave sketches in. Also its free entry, so you might as well pop in and see what they have on display!

We stopped by to cool off and saw some amazing are. Where we visited there were a few exhibits involving mixed media that were stunning and really kept the interest of the whole family. The staff are very nice and welcoming. At the time there was also a wine tasting going on. The gallery is very clean, multi story and has bathrooms available. Highly recommend stopping by and checking out the latest exhibits.

This is a wonderful art gallery that always has progressive and contemporary artists on view. It s in a historic building on a historic street and offers a great change of pace from the tourist trap of the Strand. Stop in if you re looking for a bit of culture and AC.

I never received my artwork from this arts center after having a show there in 2014. I repeatedly called and left messages and I was ignored. Dont trust this place with your hardwork.
