El Paso Museum of Art (Closed Temporarily)

Arts & Culture · El Paso, TX

About

You might expect a regional museum to focus solely on local works, but the El Paso Museum of Art balances Southwestern and international pieces under one roof. Housed in a striking downtown building, it offers a respite from the desert heat with galleries that span centuries and cultures. The museum is dog-friendly and provides free Wi-Fi, making it an easy stop for queer travelers exploring the city.

The temporary closure means you'll want to check ahead before planning a visit. When open, hours run Wednesday through Saturday from 10am to 6pm, with a shorter Sunday schedule of 11am to 3pm. The Plaza Theatre Performing Arts Center is nearby if you're looking for a full evening out after your museum visit.
