Austin Art

Austin, Texas bustles with great culture and life--it's art thrives in the streets. Artists in Austin bring the city to life in different ways, from displaying it at a very impresive art museum like the Blanton or simply paint on a brick wall Downtown.  Austin is known for its diversity and unique art--this uniqueness and creativity turns the entire city into one huge and beautiful canvas for artists. Austin is deifniately not shy, either, when showing off its local art forms. Take a walk Downtown and you'll see incredible and beautifully simple paintings and murals or take a tour through the Austin Museum of Art and you will see how "weird" Austin is. That is where the catchy phrase for Austin comes from--"Keep Austin Weird"--because it perfectly describes how different Austin culture is from other cities and how proud it is of its unique culture.
