Dallas Contemporary’s Summer Series returns with a refreshed curatorial focus, expanded programming, and new partnerships. Commencing on the summer solstice, the series runs from June through August 2025 and features day and night events designed to activate the museum’s generous space. Admission is ticketed per event, attendees are encouraged to purchase an individual membership for $75, which grants free entry to all events.
Your support directly funds Dallas Contemporary. As a nonprofit with free admission, free parking, and free programs—a rare gem in the arts—this ticketed series helps sustain our mission to present the forefront of contemporary artistic practice and artistic production through exhibitions, performances, and public programs in order to advance the discovery and appreciation of the art of this moment.
