The McNay Art Museum is a modern art museum that offers an extensive collection of 19th- and 20th-century art displayed inside a Spanish Colonial Revival-style mansion. In its vast collection, you'll find more than 20,000 unique objects showcasing some of the best paintings, sculptures, and more from the modern era.

Everyone can enjoy a trip to this art museum. The classics on display are generally suitable for families with kids, and much of the subject matter speaks to the universal human experience rather than any particular niche audience. Most people spend about 2 or 3 hours here in total.

When you visit this museum, you'll also find the landscaping and building to be particularly impressive. The mansion itself sports a unique Spanish styling, while the surrounding landscape offers fountains and statues amongst the greenery. You'll even find a Japanese-inspired garden complete with a fishpond.
