I love coming to the DMA! I havent been since before the shutdown so it was nice to come back and see new exhibits. Theyre doing timed tickets during COVID (general admission is free btw!) and everyone wears masks so theyve done a great job managing that. For the gift shop, they monitor the number of people going in to give enough space for safety.

The Dallas Museum of Arts was an amazing place to visit. Very lovely atmosphere, the people that work here are great as well. Thank you Dallas.

The DMA is a Dallas treasure with an extensive permanent collection and great special exhibits. The museum has expansive floors and the late night events with live music should be experienced by locals and tourists alike.

Awesome experience. 1st time there.. loved the Mayan and Asian culture

The reservation time slots are awesome due to COVID. It allows for a much more personal experience because it’s not nearly as crowded and it didn’t feel like we had to wait for people to move on to the next thing. Just a few pics that I enjoyed from our trip!

Currently the timed entry process is wonderful it allows you to view the art in a comfortable and relaxing way that is not crowded. There is plenty of available parking all around the building and a gorgeous Park right next door. Go view the art visit the gift shop which has incredible Works currently from Mexico. Gorgeous tapestries and bags.

Excellent museum! One needs a few days to fully explore this fantastic museum! Very well organized and I loved the different exhibition area being separated based on geographical, cultural and religious themes. There are no drinks or food allowed through the museum - so if you grab a drink or wine in the cafe area, be sure to finish it there before leaving. Great experience! Will definitely be back for more!

People might not normally think - hey, I am traveling to Dallas so I need to hit the Art Museum the way you might think about an older city.But, as a local, I keep my pass current and love to spend a couple hours here each month. Its not quiet the level of GEM that the Arboretum commands, but for an indoor venue... its as good as any major city.

Really cool art installations when I went. They had the House of Dreams installation that you have to pay extra for - super worth it. I spent more time here than I did at the Perto Museum. Their collection of artifacts are incredibly impressive. It was a huge maze. Im surprised I got through it all. If you want to kill time, youll definitely spend more time here than the Perto Museum. Parking is expensive in downtown. I went to the Perto Museum first and just parked there because it was the cheapest parking I found in the area. I left my car there and just walked over to this museum. They make you leave your water bottle at the front of the museum to collect after youre done. Make sure you bring your student ID to get a discount.

Free admission to a museum of this quality makes visiting a no brainier. Make sure to reserve your free tickets online as part of their Covid-19 safety measures. Note that some special exhibits do require a purchase.

Very cool spot to see some very renowned artwork. Would be a perfect score if not be for 2 things.. 1 why do they make their side entrance look so welcoming but only allow admission through the front? 2 why charge you extra to see a certain exhibit after paying for ticket originally hoping to see the whole shabang??

I went here a few days ago and I’m now posting a review the place has amazing stuff for you to learn about! It was all very interesting the tickets are a little pricey but overall it’s fun!

It was beautiful and safe. The staff was great in practicing and ensuring all guest kept to covid precautions. Love Is The Message The Message Is Death was the most touching, moving and impactful display I have ever experienced and I am grateful to the museum.

Wonderful stop. Lots of exhibits. We always run out of time before we run out of things to see. Great location that is easy to find. free parking and accessibility. Across from a wonderful city park with food trucks and a splash pad. We always make this our planned rest stop when we pass through dallas.

The House of Dreams is a Must see. We enjoyed learning more about the Islamic art and the Queen of Syria and the migration of many people to different lands. You will love the DMA

Wonderful exhibit. Unfortunately, the vivid response only gave me enough time to see one floor. Feel it would be better to allow each group and hour on each floor rather than an hour total. But other than that, I loved it!

A wonderfully serene museum in the middle of a concrete jungle. I’m a big fan of the DMA’s large European collection and the Keir Collection of Islamic Art. A walk around the picturesque Arts District after visiting the museum is a great way to end the day.

This museum is absolutely gorgeous and artwork is astonishing. However the staff is too high-strung and some of them were just rude. I personally do not like going to a wonderful place and rude individuals ruin your experience. I am an art lover and have been to plenty of museums all over the United States and Dallas Museum of Art has to get 3 stars for hospitality.

This is the best ever in the place where it sees the status for the arts and painted. We learned to talk about something made for the paint of the picture. Those elevator will be great attitude and such as possible can go. Where in Dallas goes in downtown for cake to the family will results 6 stars. I so proud to protect this place during Covid-19. Stay safe and stay in home before you are going the Dallas Museum Of Arts. Thank You, Dallas Museum Of Art!

So happy they are back open. Cleaning protocol is well done. Be sure to reserve online even if you are a member, do you can get in.

Its FREE to enter but must get a ticket on line. My daughter, granddaughter and I enjoyed 3 hours of the beautiful artwork! Check this off my bucket list and yes I would go again!!

Great variety. From ancient to contemporary, this museum has something for everyone. I especially liked the ancient Greco-Roman pieces, but the Asia and African sections were well worth the visit as well.DMA also deserves credit for their section of American immigrant artists.

Ive been here a couple of times. Its a great place to visit. It will take you a while to get through it. I recommend at least a couple of days just to see every thing, they have out on display.

Great variety of art from many regions and time periods. You must see it to really appreciate. Free general admissions too.

I can’t believe this place is free to enter! The permanent exhibits are gorgeous, and the temporary ones have always been amazing! The ones that require you to purchase tickets always seem very well curated and interesting. They have interactive maps to keep the kids busy according to their tastes (they love dogs? Challenge them to find the dogs in all the artworks!) which is great!

An awesome place to learn and be in awe of beautiful works of art and masterpieces. The staff were extremely welcoming. Sunday is free. Parking at the museum is $15.00 so if you get there early you can park on the street. To avoid the church crowd, get there when they open. No crowds then.

My latest visit was August 2020 and had just recently reopened due to Covid-19. Some areas, exhibits werent accessible but that will be a temporary issue. DMA has a large range of collections and exhibits. Offering something enjoyable for every taste in art.

Great atmosphere, wonderful art. You need to reserve tickets online for time slots.

A lot of the museum has changed a bit, or is different from what I remember. Certainly some exhibits havent changed much at all, however I did see some pieces no longer seen, and some of the exhibits relocated or scattered (the silver isnt cramped up in a small room as it previously had been.) The layout is more opened up and perhaps more well lit, and less impersonal perhaps. I uploaded some photos of the place (and even though Ive reviewed other museums around the country, the one museum that was local to me and probably among the first museum of any kind Ive been to, is only just now getting reviewed (photographed as it were.) August 2019 update: Many of the images I took in my review were of exhibits that are being changed out.

First trip here and I can honestly say that it was fantastic and unforgettable! Several of the art installations were absolutely amazing! Cant say enough about this place. If you have some time, make sure you get yourself some culture!

Admission is FREE! This is a great place to visit if you are in the Dallas area and are looking for something to do. Covered parking is $15. They have many displays of art from African, Asian, Greek, Pan Pacific, the list goes on! They also have different exhibits you can check out for a nominal fee as well. This place is big so put on your walking shoes and get ta steppin!

Awesome place to stop by if you like history, paintings and cultures. Great place to learn and free.

I visit Dallas annually but had never gone to any museums. I was so happy to have made it this time around. The museum has a lot of cool family activities. This season, they had a senses exhibit with lots of fun sights, smells, things to feel! I didnt get to tour the entire museum just the first floor and half of the second floor. There is a cafe with a small selection of foods. The gift shop is fun too. Lots of fashion and tinker toys.

Free of cost, wonderful place to spend. Weekend day. No food or drink allowed. Tickets for Dior gallery. 4 floors, a creative area for kids at ground floor. Mediterranean , Indian American, African, Asian etc all kinds of arts and paintings from the past. Worth the time, takes whole day. Kids and photography allowed. No flashes in cameras allowed.

It was okay because as soon as I arrived a docent yelled at me way too crazy with the wrong tone, then mocked me by using the pointing gesture I did towards the painting. I was not very close at all, behind the line, being a docent at a contemporary museum I am very aware of the rules and to stand back from art. I believe this older lady of color was having a bad day and took it out on me. All the other staff/employees were very nice and made up for the rude introduction of my visit. The exhibits were nice.

Much larger than I expected, we liked it so much we bought an annual pass. Which is a great value, as it includes parking and multiple exhibit tickets. The exhibitions are very well done and are worth the additional price. However, the standard collections are free. The opening night band for the Dior exhibit was very good. The patios are also nice. Great visit.

I went there in 4th grade for a field trip. I love the atmosphere of the Arts District. The museum is huge and beautiful. My favorite art piece was the giant iceberg painting in a gallery upstairs.

Great museum, It was absolutely worthwhile to spend the afternoon here. Well organized and nice exhibits that cover so many different themes.

Great experience. Lots of rare pieces from different parts of the world. Although, I didnt see anything from South America...maybe its coming?

Wow this place is amazing. Not only do they have a huge collection of amazing and diverse pieces, but admission is free! They do have some exhibits sometimes that you do need to pay for but its worth it. If youre interested in art at all, then definitely stop by if youre in town.

The museum itself is wonderful and has a great collection, except for the modern art section. The sculpture garden is underwhelming. But its a great place to bring your family and check out beautiful art.

Such a beautiful building a perfect place to get away from the noise of the city. Went to enjoy the Dior exhibit and am thankful I did. Amazing. And the pieces of historically famous paintings is unbelievable! Take your time here, have lunch, enjoy.

Been visiting the DMA since I was a teen and it constantly has new and exciting exhibits as well as a lovely permanent collection.

This is a great place to visit if you are in the Dallas area and are looking for something to do. They have many displays of art from African, Asian, Greek, Pan Pacific, the list goes on! They also have different exhibits you can check out for a nominal fee as well.

Some really interesting works. Great feel. Only bad side was unwelcoming guard at entrance.

It’s worth going to this place. You will define enjoy. I’m surprised after I saw the historical art pieces n hand crafts, masks, Jewelry made 100of years ago.

First thing to know is that this place is free and totally worth it! It’s not free but dingy, it’s free and classy. Do note however, that parking is $15 flat. I guess they are making up for the free access. If you have the option of using public transportation or parking somewhere cheaper, I’d use it!

Took the kids they liked it as well nice things to learn about as well very informative

DMA has done a great job to keep us safe and physically distanced while enjoying their collections. Special exhibit was terrific. Planning on seeing it again.

They have some amazing artists and a mix of every form of art there is.

Very nice museum. The large mosaic by Covarrubias just outside is spectacular.

During the time of Covid, DMA has been doing a fairly thorough job to keep the staff and patrons safe.Did you know there are such things as ice cream hatchets?

Beautiful and globally-conscious exhibits. The big donors could contribute for updates in the restroons, though.

Really cool spot. A nice mix of indoor and outdoor exhibits. We happened to come when it was free admission for the public. They had some extra events for kids and a cool little coffee and smoothie bar set up.

Amazing collection of art from around the world!!

Beautiful museum. Not huge, easily walkable in a couple of hours. Great variety in pieces with classics from Monet, Van Gogh, and OKeefe.

Such a nice and accessible Museum right in the middle of Dallas. The arts district has an entire collection of museums, fine arts venues and galleries to satisfy everyone. The DMA is an awesome addition. The free portion of the museum has works from all of the great artists that everybody has heard of and has some great art from creators for people to discover. The common areas are very nice with good food and drink options. There is a beautiful massive Dale C glass installation in the dining area. Check it out!

When I lived in Dallas earlier this year this was a place I’d go for walks and learning. There is so much here to get into one day.

This is my favorite museum in Dallas. I learn something new every time I go. Highly recommend.

A great place to visit. So much to see that you don’t want to rush it.

Dior Exhibit, from Paris to the World was outstanding. Showing until September 1, 2019. Beautiful museum.

There is so much beautiful art here. I’m not very into the the artifacts, silverware, or sculptures, but the paintings were gorgeous. We loved that they had such a cultural array of works. The museum is also very well staffed in every section in case you ever have any questions.

An exquisite range of art. Admission is free, except special exhibits, and it is closed Mondays. Their special exhibits often sell out, so good to purchase exhibit tickets ahead of time. There is an excellent mix of primitive artifacts and paintings from around the world.

The DMA no doubt has some beautiful works of art and a fairly diverse collection, however it has lesser pieces by masters. The Kimballs collection is smaller but the paintings for the most part well outshine the DMA.

Ambiance 100% on point. Quiet, relaxing, and its free. Whats not to like?? Im posed in front of the Wanda Loop exhibit. Ive personally met her and befriended her at her opening. Shes flawless.

Enjoyed my visit here. Was delighted to see that entrance to the museum was free which is not the case in many museums. Enjoyed seeing the art on the different levels. Staff was friendly and helpful. Enjoyed my time exploring the museum. Parking is a flat $15.

I’ve been to about 5 museums in large cities such as Denver, Washington D.C. and Minneapolis. Most have a fee and it was nice to see this museum was free. It was me and my fiancé’s first time in Dallas and there was absolutely nothing to site see (that we could find out from the internet, we also asked a server who’s lived there all her life and she recommended a small walking garden center when we drove by it was meager) we decided to go to the Denver Museum of Art. I genuinely love museums and was incredibly excited to be inside and appreciate art (especially since my fiancé would rather be walking outside). We found parking and walked to what seemed to be entrances and twice we had employees come outside and sternly saying go to the front pointing us around the corner making us feel like we were trying to pull a fast one and enter without checking in but we had no idea what the front was. The one lady said go on DMA and download the app and fill in the information before slamming the door as we said thank you. I signed us up and we were able to scan our codes at the door. Thankfully, it was was free. We saw the gift shop and we looked through and there were lots of Frida souvenirs. The guy at the front said go through and exit out the back doors. We when exited out we had two employees approach us and ask where we came from. We said the gift shop then they said “oh” and let us by. We asked for a front desk map and went into the Islamic artifacts. There were three employees watching us read the art plaques as most of it was behind glass. It was uncomfortable to be stared at the entire time and there was a portion we did not see because there was an employee standing in the way. We left and walked down to the outside sculpture portion and there was a kind employee who told us about them being in the Guinness world records for most people dressed like Frida. He was so nice. As we walked outside we looked at the first metal sculpture and it was a big grey angular triangle and my fiancé looked under it and touched the side as he came back. An employee came up and said sir please don’t touch the sculptures due to covid (understandable!). Being that doors weren’t constantly being washed and there was a seating area 10 feet away which I’m sure doesn’t get wiped down we were annoyed. We decided to leave. All of the employees except for one were mono toned, rude and made us feel awkward. Most were not too nice, like they dealt with the worst people and that’s how they talked to the general public on a daily basis. I understand keeping order, I understand we’re in a pandemic but I think there needs to be more welcoming attitudes and an easier system for tourists like my fiancé and I.

I was surprised. I wasnt expecting much, but this is museum is great! It covers a wide variety of art and it is well displayed. Some impressive pieces and nice special exhibits. And it was free to visit!

Visited for the special art events - have decided to check the museum while at the city. Its quite big - 3 stories, and have several rooms (+50) so you can spend almost 2-3 hours here if you are not careful.. Meaning you will end up spending your afternoon if you enter at 1 pm and come out at 4pm, thinking wow. where did time flew away? Its absolutely great museum - clean, well maintained, and the ticket price can be bit pricey. Make sure to get the family membership if you visit city and enjoy art work regularly. Monthly art museum events are available.

Wow! So big and so free! Amazing art from so many periods and so many places. And on top of that well put together and a glorious building. I could spend 1 day per floor (so 4 or more days here)!

Good art musuem. We came here for the Dior exhibit and even though I am not into fashion and came for my wife, I thought it was a wonderful exhibit. The rest of the musuem is about what youd expect. A mixture if art and creations from ancient history of different cultures around the world, and some modern art mixed into it. The real draw for this museum is they have a lot of activities on weekends and also on certain days of the week. They even have a late night day. Overall a fun time.

We came for the Dior exhibition. I bought tickets online because they were timed. Upon arrival we paid $15 to park in garage. Neat experience overall. Everyone was nice and pointed is the right direction. As you walk in theres a cafe and store. I like the entrance design as they have some seating to wait and its a drive up to pickup or drop off.

A great place to visit. So much to see that you don’t want to rush it.

Friendly, knowledgeable attendants, great selection of art. They have pieces from 500s B.C. to modern day art, Picasso, Monet and more. Even a small collection of Winston Churchills art supplies. They also have a nice childrens hands-on area for creating.

This is a great art museum, the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They have amazing art to view. The work here is just beautiful and I really enjoyed the exhibits.

I enjoyed my time here. The African section is congested and there isn’t enough space allowed in the area for the pieces to breath.

Wonderful experience in DMA. It had a lot of amazing artifacts and had a section where you can create your art with pencils. I went to downtown for the first time in Texas, and it looked amazing in the night. All the high rising buildings like chase bank or others near DMA were so high that my neck began hurting looking at all the high buildings.

My favorite place in Dallas. What a great place for even a simple walk through. If your walking past it, you should be walking through it. Always free to walk through and tons of other free areas to view masterpieces from around the world.

Free art gallery with rotating installations, in the heart of Downtown Dallas. Street parking is cheaper than the garage.

Beautiful place with lots of cool art & history. Love that it was free to visit too! Although it is self guided, there are plenty of workers who enjoy talking about the art as well, it was refreshing to talk to people that enjoyed & even knew about their work. Its also in a really cute part of the city near all these other museums & theaters and such. Definitely suggest taking the time to walk around this area and especially taking your own tour around the museum!

The childrens section was was awesome..It was very interactive and full of color.... the New York exhibit was to die for... I absolutely loved every minute of it! Will definitely go again

I took my kids on the last day of the Frida Exhibition. I had no idea how packed the museum woud be on that last day. What did I expect??? I expected more than one cashier to work both longest lines of my life. The lines were so long, we wait atleast two hours in the line to get into the museum. I will never do that again. I didnt feel necessary to email management about this concern. They know how packed it gets on the last day of famous exhibitions. Its ridiculous. I havent been back since!

Loved the Indian and Islamic collection. The post impressionist paintings are also really good.

We were here for the Christian Dior exhibit and loved every single part!I’ve been several times as different exhibits are in town and never been disappointed.Highly recommend this exhibit if you’re reading this and it’s still here!

I love DMA. Very well maintained, you would not know it’s free! Good location to the park as well.

We go here a few times a year to see various exhibits. This particular trip was for the Dior exhibit. It was a pretty good exhibit. Took about an hour to go through it so it wasnt to long or too short. Interesting to see the different design styles of the different design houses all together. Even I was able to pick out which designer/house made which piece about half way through.The museum itself was as expected. Staff was friendly enough and a few of them decently knowledgeable.

Lovely museum with great contemporary art alongside early American and ancient Asian art. They have an early Michaelangelo as part of their permanent collection, which is stunning. Entry is free, but parking is $15. You can see some art, then visit Kyle Warren Park. Plus, there are plenty of places in the museum to sit and take a break without feeling awkward.

Had to go here for my Art class and it was interesting at the beginning. It all depends on what type of art you like. Took me about 30-45 minutes to go through the whole museum.

Hi everyone this is my friend I am at city place is these places and then when is act is my house my house up there my house is 2202 can everyone see you tomorrow happy Muslim holiday

The free exhibitions were great. I like it

I’ve come to the DMA every time I come to Dallas, every exhibit is amazing.

Beautiful free and worth the trip

This is an amazing and thought provoking place and a must visit in Dallas. Its completely free and has so much to offer in the way of knowledge, experience and enrichment. Be sure to take time to visit all the galleries and dont miss the music one. There is a 64 min show for the music one that is worth dropping everything for and just being.. and experiencing. Great activities for children too on the weekend. Its got a cafe and several places nearby to eat so we did brunch then the museum. So glad we visited Dallas and saw this place ️ and spent time here. Amazingly presented art and so much of it too. Thank you

If you love art and its history from around the world, this museum will be perfect for you! The exhibits are extraordinary and the museum will be a fun, enjoyable time. Admission is free and the workers are helpful and friendly.

I love going to the DMA especially their special exhibits. The general admission is free but the special exhibits are at cost but completely worth it. I also love the Museum after dark events as well.

The general admission is free, but I paid to view some specific collections that were there for a limited time. The displays are really nice and you can tell the staff takes care of the items in their museum. There is a great variety of collections from all over the world. The layout of the museum is very easy to navigate and there is plenty of space for large groups of people. The staff is very friendly and helpful and will guide you or answer your questions without issue. There is a bag check, for free, because they do not allow any bags in the museum. I did get fussed at by some overzealous guards, but I didnt take it personally. The Japanese collection is full of interesting pieces and the pacific islands had some great displays as well. When we visited, The Power of Gold: Asante Royal Regalia from Ghana was on display for paying visitors, and it was amazing to see. Their website is very helpful and easy to navigate. They allow non-flash photography in most sections of the museum. Anyone who has a chance to visit, should. Its a great place.

Dior show is not to be missed! Beautiful, elegant, thoughtfully curated. Absolutely a highlight of our museum experience. Get tickets in advance because they sell out quick. Especially on the weekend. Plan to spend an hour absorbing the history of the House of Dior.

Great museum! Absolutely love this place. I started to visit it since I was a student. Now I still enjoy coming here. The museum is free, and its totally worth to visit! Very impressive museum.

Way better than I expected it. You should go if you are in Dallas

The Dior exhibition was beautiful. It was very well done specially the last part in which they integrated the dresses and photograph with the paints. Thank you for bringing this exhibits to the South of the US
