Art Museum of Southeast Texas mission: Through unique collections, exhibitions and public programs and outreach in the visual arts, our mission is to provide education, inspiration and creative vision throughout Southeast Texas. The purpose of the Art Museum of Southeast Texas is to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret the arts with special attention to the fine and folk arts of the 19-21 centuries by providing conservation, preservation and exhibition of collections including docent-led tours, publications, symposia, film, lectures, and interdisciplinary programs. This museum was originally incorporated in 1950 as the Beaumont Art Museum. Housed in a rented historical home near the city business district, it was a volunteer-run space for local artists to work, exhibit, and conduct classes. In 1956, increased interest led to a permanent home, a 2,000 sq. ft. facility at the city fairgrounds. In 1969, the museum moved again near downtown into a 5,000 sq. ft. donated house, renovated for exhibiting art. In 1972, the museum hired its first professional staff. With wide support, $4.2 million was raised for the construction of a 22,000 sq. ft. facility. In 1987, the museum reopened in downtown Beaumont on land leased from the City for 99 years at $1.00 per year. Convenient to public transit and major highways that cross the region, the renamed Art Museum of Southeast Texas (AMSET) reflects the institution’s expanded service area beyond Beaumont. The museum was accredited by the American Association of Museums in 1990 and again in December, 2008. The collection is currently comprised of approximately 1000 objects of 19 th -21 st century regional fine and folk art. Collections are enhanced by contemporary and historical exhibitions that lend critical context to the collection. Education remains a major strength of the museum and programs are community oriented. The growth and development of programs such as the children’s computer lab, Art After School, Protégé High School Art Competition, Family Arts Days, Art-to-Go, a rotating interactive education gallery and the junior docent program make the museum a vital community resource and a respected arts institution in the region. The Art Museum of Southeast Texas is accredited through the American Association of Museums. Sarah Hamilton Curator of Exhibitions and Collections Lynn P.

8 ABOUT THE MUSEUMS When the Art Museum of South Texas opened its addition in 2006 by internationallyrecognized architect Ricardo Legorreta, it symbolized a marriage of two cultures: the vibrant architecture and colors of Mexico City combined with the metropolitan-style architecture of New York City by world-renowned architect Philip Johnson. Johnson’s gleaming white concrete Art Museum became a landmark on the Corpus Christi Bay when it opened in 1972. Since then, the Art Museum has been host to numerous exhibitions of increasing national significance, from historic Western art from Tulsa’s renowned Gilcrease Museum to the Chicano Art of the Cheech Marin Collection. On June 30 to August 26, 2012, the Art Museum of South Texas is proud to be hosting the 15 th National Exhibition of the American Society of Marine Artists (ASMA). Artists have long been drawn to this area for its Gulf of Mexico and Padre Island location. Important marine artists like Kent Ullberg and Al Barnes reside here. Countless others have made a home in Corpus Christi, Rockport, or Port Aransas to take advantage of the rich marine subject matter. The Art Museum of South Texas, with its spacious galleries overlooking the water, showcases works of art in a wide range of media – from sculpture to painting – all focusing on fine art and crafts of the Americas. The Museum houses a 1,400-piece permanent collection, special traveling exhibitions, and a fun-filled ArtCade and Kids Zone for art enjoyment by children. The Museum’s Café provides popular lunchtime fare along with panoramic views of Corpus Christi Bay and the ship channel. As Corpus Christi has grown from a waterfront village to the 6th most active U.S. port, the Art Museum of South Texas also has grown and expanded with it.
