Bailey Art Building (BAIL)
The Ben Baily Art Building and Gallery was built in 1942 and named in honor of the first chair of the Art Department, Mr. Ben Bailey. Included in the space are labs for areas of study in painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, graphic design, digital photography, foundation studies, and digital art with sculpture housed in its own annex. The Ben Bailey building features an 1800 square foot gallery that is home to robust public programing of visual art exhibitions, lectures, and events presented to the university community annually. The gallery programming is both regional and national and reflects the full range of artistic expression of the considerable artistic talent of the South Texas region and beyond.
