Kimbell Art Museum

Fort Worth's premier art museum, featuring paintings from international painters.

Reviewed By kpenning - kc

I may be spoiled by the expansive collection of my hometown art museum, gallery upon gallery. There are basically 6 galleries at the Kimball, 4 of which were closed (in preparation for upcoming exhibit etc.) I did enjoy seeing the collection in the North gallery- a few Picassos, Monets, Matisse and several versions of Madona and child. I did not visit the African art which is housed in the building next door. As this museum is clustered with the Modern Art and Amon Carter, it could be worth your while to visit others if in the area. The coffee shop/Pavillion Cafe offers some good fare.

I was invited to play in the White Settlement Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament held June 1 at the Hawks Creek Golf Club. I played this course many years ago when it was still the Carlswell AFB. This is a gem of a golf course and was in excellent shape, even though it was wet from all of the rain that we have had. Great elevations and beautiful layout. Challenging! I plan to return and play it when we have drier conditions. Try it out. I guarantee that you will like it.

Fort Worth Zoo

City zoo that presents animal habitats as they exist in the world.

Reviewed By Tally4 - Colorado

We went on a Thursday in March, that happened to be during spring break. Apparently most of the Ft. Worth area schools have spring break at the same time. The zoo was PACKED. There was a traffic jam to get into parking, and we had to park about a half mile away in a field, then walk to the entrance. Inside was crowded, but not enough to ruin the experience, we just had to wait in line for everything.

It's a really nice zoo, just don't go during Ft. Worth's spring break!

Lovely museum. Really enjoyed the photography exhibit by Rania Matar.

This exhibition is described as "bringing together four bodies of work by the Lebanese-American photographer Rania Matar that trace the development of female identity through portraiture. Depicting transitional moments of life, from young girlhood to middle age, Matar’s works address personal and collective identity through photographs mining female adolescence and womanhood. Photographing girls and women in both the United States and the Middle East, the artist shows how the forces that shape female identity transcend cultural and geographic boundaries."

Each girl photographed is as individual as the room she calls "home". The colors in each photo, whether of the individual, or the "stuff" in the room, are dynamic. Interesting to see how they each live, whether they have a little or a lot.

This was a beautiful place to go.Truly enjoyed walking it with another couple. Be sure to eat before you go or put snacks in your pocket because they don't really sell any. If you take small children be aware there are several water features. There were plenty of things to look at and it's bigger than it looks.

Texas Christian University

Reviewed By Badgelady - Cut and Shoot, Texas

Home of the TCU Women and Men’s tennis programs, this facility has collegiate and high school competitions. There are indoor courts and numerous outdoor lighted courts. The purple courts on the grandstand side are for TCU matches. There is a pro shop with dressing rooms, ice and coffee maker. Unlike other facilities the ice and coffee are free. Yesterday during the Tech-TCU match, played in cold, windy temps, the pro shop attendant made several pots of coffee for spectators. Always a pleasure to attend matches here. Love the huge tree that surround the courts.

As part of our anniversary stay in Ft. Worth, the Botanic Gardens were on the short list.
The tour is free and quite amazing even in the late fall in north Texas. We really need to return in the spring. There is a charge for the Japanese gardens but it is so worth it for the sheer beauty to behold.

Sid Richardson Museum

One of the finest and most focused collections of Western Art in America, this Fort Worth museum features paintings of the 19th Century American West by Frederic Remington, Charles M. Russell and other artists, which were collected by oilman and philanthropist Sid Richardson.

Reviewed By Lynn M - Houston, Texas

This museum is small and intimate, but packed with beautiful Western art. One of the docents there talked to me and she was informative and delightful. Thank you, Sid Richardson, for a beautiful legacy for others, like us, to enjoy. (And the fact that it is free - always - makes it extra special.)

Texas Civil War Museum

Reviewed By jwgripp - Virginia Beach, Virginia

The museum only charges $6 for adult admissions. It is a very complete collection of guns, knives, artillery, uniforms, etc.... best I have seen. They also have a separate collection of 19th century women's dresses, which my wife enjoyed. The staff and docents are very friendly and clearly love their museum.
The museum focuses on the war and reconstruction in Texas and gives an insight, I suspect, few consider. Did you know there were naval battles?
I spent about two hours and that was about right.
