If you enjoy modern style surroundings, dinnerware and food this is the place for you. The food is a little out of the mainstream for my taste but many seem to enjoy the experience.

As a rule I'm not generally one to spend time in art museums. This time I made an exception for I was looking to spend a half day in Fort Worth. In selecting the things to see I used Trip Advisor. The museums seemed to get the best reviews and this one in particular. I wasn't disappointed. The museum has... More

Our original plans were to visit the Kimball Museum, however we arrived before the opening so a suggestion was made to walk over to the Modern Art Museum. What a lucky thing for us. The selection of pieces was outstanding and the museum itself is comfortable for walking around. There are large open spaces so it never feels crowded and... More

The "Modern" in Ft. Worth, designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando, is a visually striking building with a small but significant collection of contemporary art - in particular,the must see Martin Puryear ladder sculpture, "Stairway to Heaven" and the spectacular room with half a dozen Sean Scully paintings.

From the moment you arrive at this wonderful example of modern architecture you know you are in for a treat. The exhibits are wonderful, well thought out and the galleries induce you to take your time and truly enjoy contemporary art. Plan your visit to include lunch in the pavillion that appears to float on the reflecting pond, excellent food,... More

The Modern is my favorite spot in Ft Worth and I make it a point to visit every time I'm in the area. What an amazing representation of modern artists - Motherwell, Pollack, Warhol, Serra, Rothko, Kiefer...

Fort Worth is gaining quite a reputation across the country for its museums, and deservedly so. The aesthetics of this museum are world-class. The works of art are quite varied and interesting to just about anyone. This is a must visit for modern art fans.

Not your Mom and Dads cup of tea, perhaps, but always interesting and entertaining! They also have an outstanding independent film theatre, the Magnolia at the Modern, that often show great non Hollywood films. What's that you say, the elite(in their own minds) stuckup Hollywood folk are not the only ones that can create great flicks! Go see a film... More

We visited this museum today- one son had a birthday party here so I took the other son through the museum. Kids under 12 years old are free (Bonus!) and it is not a huge museum so they don't get too tired. Then we visited the museum cafe, which has outstanding service. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here and plan... More
