Linda,
Sounds like the Old Jail Museum in Albany, Texas, to me.  I can't find my
museum directory at the moment, so I can't give you contact information.
The museum holds a significant collection of artworks and is housed in,
you guessed it, the old Shackelford County jail.  It's usually a surprise
for tourists to find art in a museum in a jail in a town of a couple of
thousand people where one would expect the usual cowboy gear exhibit.  If
you can't find a contact, let me know, and I'll look it up.  Later.
