When you think of art, a toilet is likely the last thing that comes to mind. At Barney Smith’s Toilet Seat Art Museum, however, toilet seats are the focal point of all of the museum’s exhibits! This unique and silly museum is fun for all ages, and it just may make you reconsider how you define art and beauty. A local San Antonio man runs the small museum out of his garage, but its collection of more than 1,000 pieces of art from recycled toilet seats would rival the collections in many of the area’s larger art galleries.
Stop in to see toilet seats decorated with famous space shuttles from throughout history, vintage camera and film canisters, antique silverware, and even real human hair, all of which are sure to excite your senses and give you a good laugh. The best part of the museum is Barney himself, who often guides you through your visit and answers your questions along the way.
