This is a small museum (40 paintings and sculptures) but they are of high quality. Can't beat the price (free) and location. A trip to the Amon Carter Museum is a good addition to a visit to the Sid Richardson Museum.

Some of the most inspired paintings and sculptures I'd ever seen. And free! Thanks Sid Richardson foundation for making this available. [Having studied and worked in a building funded by and named after Sid Richardson, it was nice to find out who he was and more about him, too!] Not to be missed, and open many evenings until 8 after...

This is one of our favorite places to visit in Fort Worth. We love the paintings and sculptures and the dramatic artistic depictions of that era. We especially like the paintings depicting twilight or moonlight. Some of the paintings are quite dramatic. It's really well done.

We are Frederic Remington lovers (and relatives) so the Sid Richardson Museum was heaven for us. We have tried to see as much of Remington's art around the U.S. and this is a great little museum which is not to be missed in downtown Fort Worth.

We really enjoyed this museum, in the midst of downtown Fort Worth and within walking distance of city hall. Sid Richardson himself was a fascinating, self-made oil baron in the tradition of other rich and powerful Texans. This museum presents his collection of Western art by Remington and others. The attendants and other guests were all polite and gracious. There... More

Stopped in here during a visit to Fort Worth, very nice museum in downtown. Purchased a couple of Remington prints that we have framed in the house. Very helpful staff, very nice experience.

This museum is located in Sundance Square. If you are in Fort Worth, don't miss the chance to stop by and experiance the western art that this little museum has to offer. There are some amazing works from Remington and Russell, including some of the night sceans that Remington is famous for.
