Blanton Museum of Art Grounds Redesign

Reimagined. Refreshed. Recreated. Austin’s art museum has changed. From the moment visitors step onto the revitalized grounds, they feel the difference — how the artistic spirit inside the Blanton’s galleries has been extended throughout the museum’s outdoor areas. From the elegant petals that stretch to the big Texas sky, to the colorful native plantings, to bold immersive art installations, the Blanton grounds welcomes the visitors in like never before.

The new grounds initiative was designed to unify and revitalize the Blanton campus — which is approximately 200,000 square feet and contains two buildings and Austin by Ellsworth Kelly — through architectural and landscape improvements and art.
