Dallas Museum of Art

Why go

The permanent collections range from ancient American and Asian works to American and contemporary art. That breadth lets you build a visit around a few galleries instead of trying to cover everything. The museum's Arts District position also pairs naturally with the neighboring Nasher Sculpture Center.

What to look for

• Ancient American works across ceramics, stone and textiles
• Asian art spanning several religious traditions
• Contemporary works alongside older collections

Useful to know

• Choose a few collection areas before entering; the museum covers many periods and regions.
• Obtain the required admission ticket and check whether a special exhibition has separate terms.
• Combine it with the nearby Nasher Sculpture Center for contrasting approaches to art.
