As we turn over a new leaf and prepare for fall, so are our city’s museums. Summer exhibitions are coming to an end in the San Antonio art scene, but you won't have to wait long for your next cultural journey.

Here are five museum exhibits to check out this fall.

"Irrationally Speaking: Collage & Assemblage in Contemporary Art" | Ruby City
This exhibit highlights two types of art forms: collage and assemblage. Artists placed two or more images or objects together to create complex pieces to address a multiplicity of meanings.
