winter food drive

dallas contemporary in partnership with dallas hope charities

1 november - 31 december

with so many families in need + facing unexpected hardships due to this unprecedented year, we are proud to launch our first annual winter food drive in partnership with dallas hope charities.

2020 has been a year marked by our only constant, change. we have been witness time and time again to the transformative and healing power of art. as an institution committed to presenting new and challenging ideas to north texas, always with free admission and accompanied by leading education programs for all ages, we see access and community building as paramount.

the many challenges we face collectively as a nation, and as an institution, led us to deep reflection -- to reimagine what a contemporary art museum’s role in society is and what it should be. it is in this spirit that we looked to our friends at dallas hope charities to form an alliance that will year after year aim to give back to those in need throughout the dallas/fort worth metroplex. 

how to give

we invite you to drive by the museum located at 161 glass street and drop off any non-perishable food items you wish to donate. we have a collection bin outside of the museum on the steps of our learning space to make your experience contact-free and easy!
