Fort Worth Museum of Western Art

The Fort Worth Museum of Western Art is a permanent exhibit of 40 paintings by premier Western artists.


The museum opened in the early 1970s, and is housed in a replica of an 1895 building in downtown Fort Worth. The site was chosen by the Museum trustees both for its convenience to downtown visitors and workers and for the historic atmosphere of the area. Attendance has grown to over 15,000 annually with visitors coming from all 50 states and several foreign countries.

This free Museum offers educational programs, such as tours for adults and children, as well as on-site visits to local schools and community groups.
