Crow Museum of Asian Art
For more than 20 years, the Crow Museum of Asian Art's mission to love and celebrate the arts and cultures of Asia has served more than 100,000 people each year with signature events such as the annual Chinese New Year Festival, Otsukimi, blockbuster exhibitions and more. Located in the downtown Dallas Arts District, the Crow Museum draws from its collection of more than 1,000 objects to present thought-provoking dialogue and conversation through the lens of Asian art.
In 2019, the Crow Collection was gifted in its entirety to The University of Texas at Dallas, ensuring the care and preservation of the collection in perpetuity. As an integral part of The University's strategic mission to elevate its arts presence, the Crow will soon be building a second location on campus to better serve the students, faculty, and North Texas community.
