Reviews

Let’s hear it for the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Not only is it a beautiful building and great place to see art and eat, but it’s becoming a terrific community arts center, hosting films, chamber, and more.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram

The auditorium of the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth is resounding to new works by American composers, as well as chamber music from the 17th to middle-20th centuries.
