And when you stay at Hotel Crescent Court, you’re not just near the action – you’re right at the heart of it.
Here’s how to spend a perfectly curated art weekend, with Hotel Crescent Court as your luxurious home base.
Kick off your weekend by arriving at Hotel Crescent Court, an architectural gem that blends European sophistication with modern Texas luxury. After checking into your stylish suite, enjoy a cocktail in Beau Nash, the hotel’s elegant lounge, and ease into the creative mindset with live music and curated décor that sets a cultured tone for the days ahead.
Wake up to room service or a café-style breakfast in The Conservatory, then head out to explore Dallas’s world-class arts district – just a short drive or ride-share from the hotel.
Start your morning at the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA), home to over 25,000 works spanning continents and centuries. From ancient sculptures to bold contemporary pieces, it’s a cornerstone of the city’s cultural scene – and admission is free for general exhibitions.
Just across the way, explore the Nasher Sculpture Center, where modern and contemporary sculptures live in harmony with peaceful gardens and architectural elegance. Step outside and stroll through Klyde Warren Park, where you’ll often find temporary art installations, street performers, and outdoor exhibits blending creativity with community.
In the afternoon, stop by The Crow Museum of Asian Art, a hidden gem offering a serene and beautifully curated collection of Asian sculpture, textiles, and contemporary works. For photography lovers, check out rotating exhibitions at The Museum of Contemporary Art or local pop-up galleries in Deep Ellum or the Design District.
Before heading home, spend your Sunday morning gallery hopping through Dallas’s Design District – a short drive from the hotel and a haven for art collectors, interior designers, and creatives. Browse contemporary works, sculpture, and mixed media in galleries like Conduit Gallery, Holly Johnson Gallery, and PDNB Gallery (Photographs Do Not Bend).
Looking for something local and unique? Uptown and Bishop Arts District are dotted with independent art boutiques, artisan shops, and maker markets where you can take a piece of Dallas creativity home with you.
After each day of inspiration, unwind in the refined comfort of Hotel Crescent Court. Soak in the garden courtyard, refresh at The Spa at The Crescent, or toast to a weekend well spent at Nobu Dallas, the on-site culinary icon known for its artful dishes and upscale ambiance.
Dallas’s creative spirit is everywhere – in its museums, on its murals, and in the energy of every neighborhood.
