👋 Megan here.Ruby City, the free contemporary art museum in Southtown, is a great place to spend a hot summer afternoon.
Zoom in: The bright red building can't be missed. Inside, you'll find a thoughtful mix of collage and assemblage work, on view through the end of August, that offers a nice reprieve from more typical art museum fare.
A multimedia exhibition from a local artist that explores insomnia is on display until May.
At the Studio, a separate building located across the street inside Chris Park, an exhibition revisits Latino influence on contemporary art today, based on a 1996 show at UTSA.
📍 If you go: Ruby City is open Thursday-Sunday, 10am-6pm.
