As the Museum's original home, AMOA-Laguna Gloria is a Monment to our long-standing commitment to the community--offering a unique experience of history, art, and nature. Visitors can tour the recently restored 1916 Italianate-style villa that was the home of Texas legend Clara Driscoll. Inside they can view intimate art exhibitions and attend informative educational discussions focusing on art and nature. Outside they can stroll the lush 12-acre grounds overlooking Lake Austin and enjoy sculpture and the revitalized historic gardens. This beloved site has been declared a national treasure and is on city, state, and national registries of historic places. It is also home to The Art School, a thriving hub of activity with more than 400 classes taught annually where adults and children are encouraged to express themselves.
