The museum has a small but interesting collection displayed in an equally interesting building, with interaction between the art and the outside views. The Martin Puryear "Ladder for Booker T.

Annual 'dress up' as your favorite nominee garnered a ton of great showmanship on the red carpet for local folks again this year. Always a class act! Excellent exhibits year round and independent movies shown in comfy theatre weekly. More

It''s absolutely amazing. The cafe offers incredible food. It is reasonable and if you come to Ft. Worth, put this place on your must see list. If you live here and haven't gone....what ARE you waiting for?!? More

This is one of several art museums in Ft. Worth that are outstanding. The building is by famed architect Tadao Ando, and the setting is beautiful. There is an amazing sculpture outside the building that echos all sounds inside it. The restaurant was really good also and had windows all around with lovely views of the grounds. Definitely worth a... More

The permanent collection is wonderful and I've only been disappointed on about one occasion with the visiting collections, but that's the nature of art. I must confess that I'm a professional...
