Texas has great beaches for bird watching, boating, and fishing. Plus golf courses, cowboy and high art culture, and a rich history. Bask on the beach and bird watch between golf games before, during, or after spring break in Corpus Christi, Port Aransas, Crystal Beach, or South Padre Island. Explore East Texas from Dallas to Tyler, Texarkana, Jefferson, and Nacogdoches. Enjoy golf and big city life in Dallas or Houston. Visit Galveston's coastal Strand.

Mosaic Madness is fun for the whole family. You can create your own masterpiece using all the different kinds of glass or you can buy a finished product. There are so many projects to choose from. The owner Claire is the sweetest and the women who work there, Sheila, Ashley, and Patty are the best. They’re all so helpful and go above and beyond to make sure that your experience is perfect.

Painting with a Twist

Reviewed By Texangirlwaco

I highly recommend using Painting with a Twist for an afternoon or evening with friends! It is very relaxing and the instructors seem more like friends than employees of the business. A great way to have a fun day, and you don't have to know how to paint to do it!

I went with my siblings and knew there was a lot of interesting places in here to take cool pictures. I thought it would be bigger but it wasn’t bad! All the rooms were so unique. I loved the little hidden-under-staircase area (not sure what to call it) I LOVED the secret room. I felt like I could stay there forever. The music, colors, everything was so soothing in there. I want to go back to see how they updated the room -OG

Even though we are members, it had been several years since my wife and I visited the Blanton Museum of Art. Looking for a weekend getaway to Austin, one of the activities we had on our list was a visit to the Blanton. We wanted to see the special exhibit - The Avant-Garde Networks of Amauta: Argentina, Mexico, and Peru in the 1920s - as well as become reacquainted with the rest of the museum. We also visited the Ellsworth Kelly building, completed in 2018. This was a thoroughly enjoyable visit. The Blanton is an excellent art museum.
