A favorite among art lovers, the Port Aransas Art Center showcases rotating exhibits by local and regional artists, reflecting the area’s coastal spirit and creative energy. Located on the charming main street of Port Aransas, it’s surrounded by independently owned shops and galleries, making it easy to spend a day exploring original artworks and meeting the artists themselves. The Austin Chronicle and Texas Highways both highlight the center for its grassroots community support and lively events calendar, including workshops and art walks. Afterward, stroll the town or enjoy fresh seafood at a nearby dockside spot.

I am an art junkie while vacationing and love to collect local art so I definitely did not pass this up. There was a very nice lady and gentleman running it, they were very nice letting me sit and sift even offering wine. I definitely spent more than I needed to but not as much as I could have because there were so many great pieces. I did notice that they had community art area so it is really cool they do classes because we like to support local. The small note card sized prints ended looking great in frames that we got from Hobby Lobby, it was 3 cards per frame with matting.

Absolutely amazing!!! One of a kind art from local artists and you can purchase it all and take lessons as well! Friendly staff. I took my teenage granddaughter and her friend and they were amazed! Highly recommend this as part of your beach vacation!!!

The Art Center of Port Aransas is a beautifully curated gallery featuring local and international artists living in the area like myself 🤍 Most artwork is inspired in the natural surroundings of the area, you will find landscapes, birds, fish, and abstract pieces inspired in those subjects. Coming in the gallery makes a great day activity for all the family, kids will love to look at fun art, parents will love the amazing photography, and if your walls are all occupied, there is gorgeous wearable art, hand made one of a kind jewelry, statement pieces and other small souvenirs. Most of the artists volunteer at the gallery on a daily basis, so you may get lucky and meet some of us during your visit. We are happy to have you here, see you soon! 🎨🖼👩🏽‍🎨

Don't know what happened with my last review, but anyway, Super fun place. This Art Center is the 💣 B.. It's also an art school of sorts. We did a class a few weeks ago. It's definitely not cheap, but Holy Crud.. I was able to channel my inner Vincent van Gogh!! Pretty much everything in the building is for sale and they have some wonderful pieces that would look great it your casa.. If you're tired of the Sun N Sand around Port A and looking for something different??? This is your place. Check it out.. Plotted.. Scouts Out.

This is a great gallery. Lots of pieces of many types of media, all from local artists. Taking home some of their art is a great way to remember a trip to Port-A! My girls really enjoyed an art lesson from one of the artists with paintings on display, some of which we bought for our home.

Great place! Lots of very talented artists on display. Prices are quite low to quite expensive, so something for everyone’s budget.

We didn't know our rental shared a fenceline with the Art Center. In fact we didn't even know the center existed until we arrived! This place wound up being our favorite thing to visit aside from the beach! The art is expansive, encompassing several mediums (wood, glass, ceramic, canvas, etc). We visited the Art Center three times in three days. The volunteers were refreshingly friendly and when I'm back in Port A this place is tops on my list! Enjoy!

I got off the Port Aransas ferry and headed inland to find a beacon of beauty and "hurricane" hope in the Art Center of Port Aransas. They opened their brand new building right before Hurricane Harvey. Luckily, the building was very well built and they sustained only a small bit of damage and are now fully repaired. Light, open and airy galleries with meeting/classroom spaces, some groups in the community still repairing their own spaces have found the Center a welcome spot for their own meetings. This modern, calm environment is so welcoming, and the art is astonishingly beautiful. Yes, you can buy everything. And you will want to! Art classes, music, art festivals and more are in the works, so check the website for details. There is ample parking. #PortAStrong

There are a lot of gift/souvenir shops in Port Aransas, but if you are looking for something from a local artist, they offer a wide variety of items - including paintings and jewelry at a good range of prices. The workers were very friendly and helpful. I ended up buying a small painting that I look forward to finding the perfect spot for.
