We really liked the sculpture walk on the outside. The art was full of variety and good talent. Nice building and easy access.

Thanks for stopping by! Our exhibitions change frequently to keep it fresh for our repeat guests. Next up are a couple of terrific circus related shows and the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies beginning June 1. Hope to see you again soon. More

Excellent place to catch a musical performance. Nice seating with good sight lines. The theater is able to draw excellent talent, and from time to time puts on some rarely-seen shows.

I stopped by to see an exhibit in the gallery then found there are more than one galleries. Also there is a beautiful sculpture garden completed with waterfalls. The building is welcoming and beautiful. I also saw a ballet performance on stage in the very comfortable theatre. Performances are for a small charge but gallery exhibits are free.

It's been too long since I visited this place, but from what I remember the experience was a good one. Perhaps I will visit it again soon.

Stopped by the Irving Arts Center to see the art galleries and it was a very pleasant visit. The main gallery space is huge and light and airy. A great selection of art from local artists. Looks like they have a nice theater as well but didn't have time to catch a show.

We recently traveled to Irving, Texas to see their production of Oklahoma. This was the BEST musical I have ever seen, and that includes the ones that we have been to in NYC. The quality of the performance as well as the friendly staff and accommodations were excellent. Hopefully we will be able to visit again soon. Great job!!

This place looks like a world class center. The escalators and elevators give a regal ride, and the rooms are fit for a king.
