About The Nave Museum

The Nave Museum is run by the Victoria Regional Museum Association. Its permanent collection features hand-painted landscapes by Royston Nave, who painted Texas scenery in an impressionist style. Temporary exhibits rotate through the year, and a members' gallery shows artwork by local supporters, some of it for sale. The museum also offers art classes for children and teens, including free sessions, along with artist talks and member preview events. Visitors can tour at their own pace, and staff are available to answer questions.
