The Dallas Museum of Art (DMA) is Dallas' major art museum. Every wonder why Dallas doesn't have a museum of modern art? It's because our museum of fine art and modern art merged in the 50's, so you get both fine art and modern art in a one-stop shop. This is also a great museum for kids, as their C3 exhibit has a lot of hands-on ways for children to participate. Admission to the DMA's permanent exhibit is also now free! They also bring in a wide variety of special exhibitions from ancient works to fine art to contemporary works. There is, typically, admission to any special and visiting exhibitions on display. If I could, I'd give the DMA a hug.
