Art Complex Sculpture Garden
About
The Art Complex Sculpture Garden is located on the south side of campus, near the intersection of Sam Houston Avenue and 21st Street. A majority of the pieces are centered around the main lawn north of Building F and east of Building D. Other public art pieces can be found alongside the exterior of the other buildings within the grounds.Photographs

Beside the northern entrance to Building D is the entrance to handicap ramp, where a wall has been decorated with these mosaics.

An entryway at southwestern corner of Building C (and some tape on the wall to the left of the door, which we weren’t sure whether was art or not but we liked it how stuck around).
