    We traveled to Dallas/Fort Worth area for our quick weekend trip just to visit one of Kimbell Art…read moreMuseum's exhibit, The Holy Sepulcher. Museum/Exhibit: Museum entry was free. The Holy Sepulcher exhibit cost $18. It featured small wooden fragments believed to be relics of the True Cross from Christ's crucifixion. Each item carries a rich history. As Christians, we enjoyed this exhibit very much. The other areas of the museum were more spacious. 2 notable works of art included Caravaggio's The Cardsharps and Michelangelo's The Torment of Saint Anthony, an early piece thought to be his very first painting. The entire museum was easy to walk through and explore at your own pace. Service: The staff was friendly and accommodating. Self-service luggage storage was a plus as it was very convenient. We had 2 carry-on luggages and a backpack. There is a big cafe inside with patio seating for lunchtime. Parking: Free in the parking lot. We took ride-share from DFW airport since we came here before checking in to our hotel back in Dallas.

    A Must update for a Must see! Extended until July 12... Hurry before it's gone…read more Once in a lifetime to see 60 objects from the Holy Sepulcher. I've made my feelings known about the world class museum that is The Kimball in previous reviews. You have either gone,want to go back ASAP or don't care. No middle ground here. I am posting this specifically for those who may want something to do in DFW in the next few days. Like,Once in a lifetime exhibition of Holy objects. You are guaranteed a memorable visit at the Kimball even if you don't make the Holy Sepulcher. However,this exhibit is beyond impressive. Go!

    I highly this interesting exhibit, with caveats. It was very informative and I saw many new and…read moreinteresting details about the Sistine chapel that I had never realized. You will learn the extreme lengths Michelangelo went to over 4 years to create these paintings. You will see up close the fine detail and will learn where Michelangelo's self portrait is and why he portrays himself this way. Do NOT SKIP the audio device. I bought a VIP package, and the clerk only gave me the option to scan a bar code and listen on my cell. I did not being ear buds so this was a waste to me. Later, as the exhibit got busier, I saw the audio devices, so that was annoying that I wasn't given that option. Finally, the paintings followed a good flow but the informational panels and accompanying audio are numbered and the numbers do not match the flow. The hand held devices could simply scan in. I had to scroll through a website. I also did not like the lighting. While this is a temporary exhibit, the lighting could have been improved. I was not impressed with the exposed extension cords. Each exhibit had a stand alone light fixture, and most of the cord was tucked away. But the plugs were exposed. Finally the light itself was harsh. It looked good on the wall, but was glaring when you needed to read the informational panel. I bought a book for $12 at the end. It essentially shows each panel separately and contains the same information as the wall description. I would have loved to have this in my hand while walking through. Finally, don't miss the video presentations. I do recommend this exhibit. If they would spend a little extra effort, I would make it a high recommend.

    From the owner: Experience Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel masterpieces like never-before! Life-Size, Up-Close & in…read moreState-of-the-Art Detail!
