Tired of doing homework at the Alkek Library? Want to spice up your homework environment? Don’t worry, we got you covered! George’s is another really cool place within the Texas State campus!
George’s can be found in the LBJ building on the lowest floor! It is on the same floor that Chick-fil-a, Starbucks, and Tu Taco can be found! They are open from 11 AM to 8 PM on Mondays through Thursdays. On Fridays they also open at 11 AM, however they do close at 5 PM.
I am not entirely sure what Texas State calls this place, but I found this place while walking around campus one day. I absolutely love this place because it is very calm and colorful.

Most people don’t know about this place because it is hidden in the trees and is a bit away from the main campus. To enter to the place, there is a huge staircase that takes you from Old Main to the entrance.

From colorful murals to coffee places, vintage thrift shops, to our famous river, San Marcos has it all, and so much more. In this blog, I will be going over a few of my favorite places as well as those that have yet to go to!
If you are in need of some cute and vintage clothes to add to your closet, Vagabond is the place! Vagabond is a popular vintage clothing shop located on the Square.
It is one of the best vintage shops that I have been to in a while. Though the prices tend to be a bit high, the staff are super nice, the clothes are very organized, and I always find something there when I visit!
2. Murals
Murals are a fun way for artist to showcase their talent and also make taking photos fun! Personally, I am a huge fan of street art. I find other people’s artwork very inspiring and I feel that it really makes the Square much livelier and fun!
There are many intricate murals within San Marcos, however many of them are hidden between the buildings. Even though the art may not be in plain sight to those who are driving by, if you choose to walk the Square, you are guaranteed to finding a mural or two!

The Wittliff Collections was founded by Bill and Sally Wittliff in 1986 and included many unique items that can now be viewed on the seventh floor of the Albert B. Alkek Library. Although the museum looks quite small from the outside, The Wittliff Collections takes many people by surprise due to its size. With a wide variety of exhibits and collections, it is almost impossible to not find something that peaks your interest. For additional information about The Wittliff Collections, click here!
