The Arlington Museum of Art has maintained an impressive tradition of fostering the creativity of artists from all around the world and then giving them a venue in which their work can be appreciated. This museum and art attraction maintains an active schedule of various exhibits, programs and events all designed to further the importance of artistic expression in the community. There are also special presentations for students and various groups, as well as classes and other special events throughout the year that serve to underscore the importance of art in all of our lives.
If you love the theater but hate the crowds, you'll absolutely love taking in a performance at Theatre Arlington. This venue offers highly personal theatrical experience, as there are only 200 seats in this quaint little theater that make every performance an intimate affair. On-stage entertainment ranges from excellent family fare to provocative adults-only productions, but either way, you won't miss a minute of the drama that will unfold right before your eyes.
Arlington's Holiday Lights Parade is a family favorite. The city officially illuminates its Christmas tree and the event provides lots of family activities and entertainment provided free of charge. The celebration includes live music, free carriage rides, face painting and even free photos with Santa. Grab your eggnog and warm coat and get ready for some holiday cheer, North Texas style!
