This amazing museum in the Arts District of Dallas is a phenomenal place to visit. It's small but host to a million little treasures from South and East Asia. Best of all, admission is FREE! The first gallery you typically enter features a temp exhibit, usuall by modern Asian artists; for example they have featured in the past Japanese quilts and works of art made by blind Chinese artisans. Once you go up the elevator, you find yourself in the Chinese gallery, which features things like ornately decorated snuff bottles, tapesties of Manchu rulers, elegant objects of carved jade, large vessels, and much more. Don't forget to check out the objects on the mezzanine. once you proceed down the adjacent hallway, you'll pass a display case featuring a Mughal-era stand for the holy Q'uran, a knife, and some other objects from Muslim India. In the next gallery, you find the facade of an Indian fort, as well as a multitude of reliefs of Hindu gods. Behind the fort are golden objects from Nepal and South-East Asia. There is a mini-room adjacent where you find ornate wooden carvings. The museum also hosts regular events (festivals and the like) as well as craft sessions (like mehndi classes) that costs a small amount of money (but the festivals are free). Last time I went, they were renovating, I think to include a bigger gift shop. All in all, this is a fabulous place to visit. It's small, but inviting and clean, and there aren't security guards breathing down your neck at every turn. 100% wonderful!

I love this place because they have a great selection of asian art that I haven't seen before. The prices are a little expensive since some of the paintings are shipped from asia. I love this place because of the variety they have. The talent and hard work that went into these paintings are amazing and I love the work. I would definitely buy the paintings if i had the cash to do so!

The Trammell and Margaret Crow Collection is a comprehensive exhibit of works from Japan, China, India and Southeast Asia. Natural light illuminates most of the 12,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space. Pieces span from 3500 B.C. to the early 20th century. Featured displays include precious jade ornaments from China, delicate Japanese scrolls and a rare 28-by-12 foot sandstone facade of an 18th-century Indian residence. Several permanent pieces are rotated regularly.
