Tour Central Texas Modernism

The best way to understand modernist architecture is to walk through it.

Three ways to experience mid-century modern architecture. Mid Tex Mod's tour program offers guided tours led by knowledgeable volunteers, self-guided tours you can take at your own pace, and digital tours you can explore from anywhere. Each format covers different buildings, neighborhoods, and cities.

Guided tours typically last 90 minutes to two hours and include interior access to buildings not normally open to the public. Guided tours run on seasonal schedules, with the heaviest programming in spring and fall.
