    Six major museums in downtown Dallas have jointly revealed plans to reopen their doors in the coming months. They include the Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum, Nasher Sculpture Center, Crow Museum of Asian Art, Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza, and Perot Museum of Nature and Science.

    The six museums have been collaborating over the past several months to determine appropriate reopening dates and new measures to ensure the health and safety of their staff and all visitors. All staff and visitors will be required to wear face masks, and each facility has added sanitizing stations, among other safety protocols.

    In a group statement August 9, the museums said, "We have all been working together since our closures in March to prepare for the days when we can safely welcome visitors again. The past five months have been times of significant change. As cultural institutions, we each recognize our unique roles as places for visitors to find solace, joy, and connection. We are excited to finally reopen our spaces to the community."

    Both the Dallas Museum of Art and Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum will come first, with each opening on Friday, August 14.

    The DMA will temporarily only be open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 11 am to 5 pm. General admission will remain free, but tickets to visit must be booked in advance. The museum will admit up to 200 visitors at a time, who will have access to the building for two-hour periods.

    All exhibitions that were on display when the museum closed have been extended, and the special exhibition "For a Dreamer of Houses," which was to have opened on March 15, will be available for view with the purchase of an additional ticket. It will now remain on view until July 4, 2021. Also opening on August 14 will be "Dalí’s Divine Comedy," which showcases selections from Salvador Dalí’s most ambitious illustrated series: his colored wood engravings of the Divine Comedy.

    The Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum will be open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm. In addition, every Friday will have members-only hours from 9-10 am. The museum teaches the history of the Holocaust and aims to advance human rights to combat prejudice, hatred, and indifference. Their Pivot to America Wing, which explores the journey for civil rights in America, is currently housing the special exhibition, "The Fight for Civil Rights in the South," a photographic exhibit that chronicles the African American struggle for civil rights and social equality in the 1960s.

    Next up will be Nasher Sculpture Center, which will be open Thursday through Sunday starting August 20. Hours on Thursdays and Fridays will be 11 am to 8 pm, and Saturdays and Sundays from 11 am to 5 pm. Visitors must book their tickets in advance. Remaining on view will be the exhibition Barry X Ball: "Remaking Sculpture," which has been extended until January 3, 2021, and "Foundations: Barry X Ball," extended until January 10, 2021. Also remaining will be "Resist/Release" extended until January 17, 2021, and Nasher Prize Laureate: Michael Rakowitz, extended until April 18, 2021. The new series Nasher Windows, which features work by North Texas artists, will continue in the entrance vestibule of the museum until early September.

    The Crow Museum of Asian Art will open on September 18, offering admission Friday through Sunday from 11 am to 5 pm. General admission will be free, and the museum will operate at a 25 percent occupancy. On view will be the special exhibition Beili Liu: "One and Another," and two exhibitions from the permanent collection, "The Art of Lacquer" and "Immortal Landscapes: Jade from the Collection."

    The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza will welcome visitors on a to-be-determined date in mid-September, and plans to be open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm. They plan to offer timed tickets that must be purchased in advance via the museum website at jfk.org. Capacity will be limited to 25 guests per entry time. Admission includes access to "Art Reframes History," a special installation of works of art from the museum’s collections that explores the variety of ways artists interpret history. The creative voices in the exhibition span time and geography but all share a common point of inspiration: the life and legacy of President Kennedy.

    The Perot Museum of Nature and Science, which had previously announced plans to reopen on July 9 only to scuttle them due to an uptick in COVID-19 cases in Texas, has not determined an exact opening date. Museum officials will announce plans at a later date. For updates, go to perotmuseum.org or follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

    Dallas' Theatre Three asks public for urgent help to keep lights on

    "Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812" ran Off Broadway.

    A longtime Dallas theater company is asking for urgent help. Theatre Three (T3) has made a plea to the community for $200,000 in donations to stay in business.

    In a Facebook post on May 13, they say, "Without immediate and substantial help from our community, we will be forced to close our doors."

    They say they've suffered several years' worth of financial hardships, including effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and more recently, cuts in arts funding.

    The post says, in part:

    "For 64 years, Theatre Three has been a cornerstone of Dallas’ creative spirit — bringing bold, innovative productions to life and showcasing the extraordinary talent of our local artists, designers, and creatives. We have been an intimate stage for everyone. But now, we face the greatest challenge in our history.

    "After mourning the loss of our beloved Jac Alder, and then, under the leadership of the incredible Jeffrey Schmidt, surviving the immense toll of the COVID-19 pandemic, we find ourselves once again at a significant crossroads. The ongoing erosion of support for the arts has dealt a devastating blow to our funding ...

    Our goal is $200,000. This is not the news we want to share, but it is news that we believe you all would want to know."

    The post is signed by board members Jessica Turner Waugh, Suzanne Burkhead, Rosa Medina-Cristobal, Scott T. Williams, Robert McCollum, Harrison Herndon, David G. Luther, Mia Glogau, and Jon Collins.

    Donations, they say, will help support local artists, staff and creatives to produce their next show, Xanadu; counter the rising costs of rent, insurance, and production; and allow them to retain staff.

    "We know times are tough. But we also know what this theater and its people mean to our city and to the generations who have found meaning, joy, and belonging within its walls," they say. "And that is why we are making this urgent plea. Help us preserve this Dallas institution."

    They end the post with a link to their donation page: https://www.theatre3dallas.com/support/.

    T3's black-box theater Theatre Too's final show of the season is The Mystery of Irma Vep, a fast-paced and campy parody that is on stage now through May 18.

    Theatre Three will close out its current season with Xanadu, a high-energy, roller-skating extravaganza that brings the 1980 cult film to life. Douglas Carter Beane is behind the hilarious book, and music and lyrics are by John Farrar and Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) founding member Jeff Lynne. It is set to run June 5-July 6, 2025.

    In addition to a full season of mainstage productions, Theatre Three offers additional programs for the community throughout the year.

    Monday Night Playwright features unique and affordable opportunities for local writers to showcase their works. Fight Night provides the community and artists alike with movement and other physical skills through monthly stage combat classes.

    The Norma Young Advanced Acting Lab, a collaboration with Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, is in its fifth year. Students have access to masterclasses hosted by industry professionals and exclusive insight on the professional production process at Theatre Three, then the course concludes with a professionally produced showcase.

    Theatre Three is located at 2688 Laclede St. in the Quadrangle in Uptown Dallas. For more information in productions and programs, visit their website.
