Crow Museum of Asian Art

An always-free museum of Asian art in the Dallas Arts District, with a rotating calendar of exhibitions and events — plus a second location on the UT Dallas campus.

The Got Weekend take

Why go

The Crow Museum of Asian Art, part of The University of Texas at Dallas, sits on Flora Street in the Dallas Arts District — the largest contiguous urban arts district in the United States, as the museum itself notes. Admission is always free, and the museum runs a rotating calendar of exhibitions, programs, and events six days a week, year-round. A second location, the Edith and Peter O'Donnell Jr. Athenaeum, is now open on the UT Dallas campus in Richardson. The Dallas galleries are a calm counterpoint to the bigger museums nearby — an easy, no-cost stop between the DMA and the Nasher.

  • Always-free admission to a rotating calendar of exhibitions and events
  • Located in the Dallas Arts District, steps from the DMA and Nasher
  • Second location now open at the UT Dallas campus in Richardson
  • Members park free for up to two hours in the Trammell Crow Center garage

Art lovers on a budget, solo visitors wanting a quiet gallery hour, and anyone building an Arts District museum day — the free admission makes it an easy add-on stop.
