Amon Carter Museum

The Amon Carter Museum opened in January 1961 to house the collection of western art amassed by Fort Worth publisher and philanthropist Amon G. Carter, Sr. (1879-1955). Expanding on Carter's original collection of 400 paintings, drawings, and works of sculpture by Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell - the single most important collection of works by these artists - the museum now encompasses a wide range of nineteenth- and twentieth-century American paintings, drawings, prints, and sculpture, as well as photographs from the early days of the medium to the present.

Among the riches of the paintings collection are:
* Nineteenth-century landscapes by Hudson River School painters
* Trompe-l'oeil still lifes
* Fine examples of American impressionism and modernism
* Paintings by Remington and Russell
* Early scenes of the West by John Mix Stanley and Albert Bierstadt
* Many memorable New Mexico paintings by Georgia O'Keeffe

Admission to the museum is free. All galleries in the Amon Carter Museum offer barrier-free access.

Amon Carter Museum Hours:
Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday: 10:00 am – 5:00 pm
Thursday: 10:00 am – 8:00 pm
Sunday: Noon – 5:00 pm
Closed Mondays and major holidays.
