The Blanton: big as Texas

by Bill Davenport October 5, 2008

Austin’s Blanton Museum of Art, now the largest university museum in the United States, is finished. The new Edgar A. Smith building (named for the oilman and UT alum who lives n Houston) houses the museum shop and cafe, an auditorium and the museum’s administrative offices. There’s a grand public festival scheduled for November 16 to unveil it, and museum members’ double discount day holiday shopping on December 5th!
