I can’t thank the Arlington Museum of Art enough for making my engagement truly a dream come true! My fiancé, Brady, proposed during the exclusive D23 event opening of Heroes & Villains: The Art of the Disney Costume and All That Glitters: The Crown Jewels of the Walt Disney Archives exhibits, and the museum staff went above and beyond to make this moment unforgettable. The setting was stunning! We were surrounded by Cinderella gowns and glittering crowns, with rose petals and candlelight arranged to perfection. The museum team not only helped Brady film the proposal but made everything run smoothly, creating an atmosphere that felt like a fairytale brought to life. They even allowed him to put my artwork on display as part of the proposal! He made my unspoken dream a reality—what a surprise it was to have a piece of my works become a part of a museum exhibit! Then to top it off, couple weeks later the staff surprised us by mailing a thoughtful card congratulating us on our engagement, which was such a sweet and unexpected gesture! I will cherish this experience forever—it was more magical than I could have ever imagined. If you’re looking for an immersive experience that offers not just stunning art exhibits but also an incredibly thoughtful and caring team, I highly recommend visiting the Arlington Museum of Art. Thank you for your part in creating this once-in-a-lifetime memory that we’ll treasure for years to come!

I recently had the privilege of visiting the Pompeii exhibit at the Arlington Museum of Art, and I was thoroughly impressed! The exhibit was meticulously curated, with an incredible collection of artifacts that transported me back in time. The level of preservation and detail in the artifacts was astonishing, and the interactive displays and immersive experiences brought the ancient city to life. The exhibit's ability to convey the daily life, culture, and tragedy of Pompeii was truly captivating. The museum did an outstanding job of creating an engaging and educational experience. I left with a newfound appreciation for history and a sense of wonder. Highly recommend this exhibit to anyone interested in history, art, or culture!

It was good, Just okay. I had bEen lookiNg forward to it but they could have doNe a way better job. There was only four dIsplays. I would have liked to see all 10 eras on display. The people who worked there are nice though. For Example 1989 is one of my moRe favorite alBums. As weLl as repUtation. But it’s morE than just the favorite eras of mine they could have done way more to showcase Taylor Swift’s career. I’m a true swiftie. Also for that part of the museum to be called taylor swift the eras tour collection, there was nothing of the eras tour collection.

It’s okay. In my humble opinion, it is not really worth the rather pricey admission for $20 and one gallery, I guess I expected more since it’s right by UTA and Arlington is a bigger city now. Definitely wasn’t expecting another DMA but I was definitely underwhelmed. Also, there’s not much else to do around. Their Disney exhibition was awesome, but I don’t see myself coming back unless there’s something more. This museum is super hidden and it has a lot of potential, I’d love to give it another shot in the future. But for now, maybe I’m just not seeing it?

My family and I went see the 55 wood block prints by Utagawa Hiroshige's Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido, 1797-1858, Japan. It was a thrilling experience to see 161 to 222 year old prints in fantastic color and in really good condition. Photograph were not allowed except for the information plaques. It was a wonderful experience. The down side was that on the day of our visit the elevator was not working. So if you have problems with stairs, go slowly up and down them. Bring your own walking assistance equipment. The staff are very courteous.

This is a good, medium-size, art museum with potential for even more. My family made a visit to see art showcased from local Arlington ISD students. The staff was friendly and wanted to make sure we had a good experience. The main gallery is open and spacious with lighting for each display. The museum has two smaller galleries - one upstairs and one downstairs. The museum is in a great location in downtown Arlington within walking distance of the library and other notable venues and restaurants.
