Contemporary Dallas defines itself as “a space that firmly believes in the power of artists’ ideas and voices to tell and transform society.”

Founded in 1978, the museum began hosting annual exhibitions of artwork created by its members, and provided rental exhibition space for emerging artists on its Swiss Avenue location. The museum later expanded its mission to include exhibits by non-member artists from Texas.

By 2010, DC’s donors raised the stakes for Dallas’ contemporary art scene by purchasing a 37,000-square-foot building in the Design District. Since then, D.C. has expanded its reach to include the full spectrum of contemporary art, thus placing Texas artists in a global context. and presenting new and challenging ideas from regional, national and international artists.
