ABOUT

  
Join us on Sunday, Oct. 13th for the public grand opening of Ruby City! A ribbon-cutting ceremony with Mayor Ron Nirenberg will be held at 11am to introduce Ruby City to the San Antonio community. Las Damas de Jalisco mariachi band will be performing and refreshments and light bites will be provided. Ruby City then proudly opens its doors to the public for the first time beginning at noon.

Ruby City is a contemporary art center in San Antonio, TX, dedicated to providing a space for the city’s thriving creative community to experience works by both local and internationally-acclaimed artists. Envisioned in 2007 by the late collector, philanthropist and artist Linda Pace, Ruby City presents works from the Linda Pace Foundation Collection of more than 900 paintings, sculptures, installations and video works. The new building, designed by renowned architect Sir David Adjaye OBE is part of a campus, which also includes Chris Park, a one-acre public green space named in memory of Pace’s son, and Studio, an auxiliary exhibition space which presents curated shows and programming throughout the year.

Ruby City is free and open to the public.
