Through the years, TFAA acquired the Laguna Gloria Art Museum, later becoming the Austin Museum of Art (AMOA) and the Jones Center for Contemporary Art, which later changed to Arthouse at the Jones Center. In November 2011, AMOA celebrated 50 years in the community and merged with Arthouse at the Jones Center, rejoining the two primary organizations that constituted the TFAA. The Contemporary Austin is the result of the transformation of a century-old museum and school, AMOA-Arthouse, into a new entity with a distinctive vision and mission to unite the museum's two major venues, <a href="/wiki/Laguna_Gloria" title="Laguna Gloria">Laguna Gloria</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Arthouse_at_the_Jones_Center" class="mw-redirect" title="Arthouse at the Jones Center">Jones Center</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Jones_Center_on_Congress_Avenue">Jones Center on Congress Avenue</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Contemporary_Austin&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Jones Center on Congress Avenue"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Jones_Center_on_Congress_Avenue" title="Jones Center on Congress Avenue">Jones Center on Congress Avenue</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg/220px-The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg/330px-The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg/440px-The_Contemporar_yAustin_-_JonesCenter.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4950" data-file-height="3300" /></a><figcaption>The Contemporary Austin – Jones Center on Congress Avenue</figcaption></figure> <p>Designed by architects <a href="/wiki/Lewis.Tsurumaki.Lewis_(LTL_Architects)" class="mw-redirect" title="Lewis.Tsurumaki.Lewis (LTL Architects)">Lewis.Tsurumaki.Lewis</a>, The Jones Center includes 5,100 square feet of exhibition space, along with a community room and roof-top deck for events and educational programming.

Until then, the only Alamo property owned by the state was the mission church, acquired in 1883. She was reimbursed by the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Legislature" title="Texas Legislature">Texas Legislature</a> in 1905 and the entire Alamo property was given over to the safekeeping of the <a href="/wiki/Daughters_of_the_Republic_of_Texas" title="Daughters of the Republic of Texas">Daughters of the Republic of Texas</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-texashighways_8-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-texashighways-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1906, Driscoll married editor and publisher of the <i><a href="/wiki/Austin_American-Statesman" title="Austin American-Statesman">Austin American-Statesman</a></i> newspaper, Hal Sevier. The couple purchased the Laguna Gloria property in 1914, because it reminded them of <a href="/wiki/Lake_Como" title="Lake Como">Lake Como</a> in Italy where they had honeymooned a few years earlier. In 1916 they built a home on the land, designed by San Antonio architect Harvey L. Page. They named it Laguna Gloria in part after one of her family's ranches in <a href="/wiki/Duval_County,_Texas" title="Duval County, Texas">Duval County</a>, "La Gloria". The site's proximity to water is most likely the reason they referred to it as a <a href="/wiki/Lagoon" title="Lagoon">lagoon</a>. In 1926, Driscoll reflected on the site: </p> <blockquote><p> I have struggled to make this little home site...into a passably presentable garden of lawns and shrubs and flowers, intersected by paths and steps, with...glimpses and balustrades, and a few oil jars of ancient and accepted design. I have placed in...a proper setting a number of really beautiful and graceful statues which I was fortunate enough to obtain from one of the oldest and finest gardens in old Italy; this to give an Old World touch to an incomparably beautiful Texas landscape and to contribute a little dignity and formality to the riotous caprices of this violet-crowned vale.<sup id="cite_ref-AMOA_3-1"
