Evolution of a Museum

Explore the museum and hear inside stories on what it took to refurbish the 1930s Art Deco building, how stunning new exhibits combine with legacy museum displays to tell the story of 600 million years of life in the region we now call Texas, how the visitor experience is changing and what lies ahead in future phases of renovation.

Paid parking is available at San Jacinto Parking Garage next to Texas Science & Natural History Museum as well as in other UT parking garages, and metered parking is available along Dean Keeton St. and along San Jacinto Blvd. on the south side of Dean Keeton. Parking is also available near the LBJ Library lot #40. Because UT Austin is a busy campus with many different activities and events, we recommend exploring several ride share, parking or public transportation options as you plan your museum visit.
