In 1968, no one really took notice when an old, abandoned stone jail in a remote West Central Texas town 120 miles west of Fort Worth was inherited by an art collector. Today, that same building is the very visible anchor of an accredited art museum that serves as a regional center for art exhibition and education. The town was Albany and the old jail is now The Old Jail Art Center. The museum has grown considerably since its humble beginnings in 1980. Starting with the donation of four private collections, the permanent collection has expanded to include more than 1,900 works spanning important periods in Asian, Pre-Columbian, European, and American art.
