The Nasher Sculpture Center stands in Dallas, Texas, at 2001 Flora Street, in the city's Arts District. It is a museum devoted to sculpture, and it is the kind of place to visit slowly, one room or one piece at a time.
What you will see
The collection focuses on modern and contemporary sculpture. Visitors will find works by Picasso, Rodin, and Giacometti, among others, presented across indoor galleries where the artworks can be studied up close.
Indoors and out
The museum has two parts to explore:
- Indoor galleries, where the collection is displayed and where you can view pieces from many angles under controlled light.
- An outdoor sculpture garden, where works sit among open space and plantings, a good counterpoint to the galleries inside.
Planning your visit
The Nasher suits anyone interested in modern art, from those who already know Rodin's and Giacometti's work to those curious about how sculpture changed across the last century. It also works well as a relaxed outing, since the garden invites a walk between galleries.

Because the museum sits in the Arts District, you can easily pair your visit with other cultural stops nearby and make a full afternoon of it.
