    First National Juneteenth Museum slated to open in Fort Worth in 2026

    The National Juneteenth Museum, a museum dedicated to Juneteenth slated to open in Fort Worth, still has a ways to go before it will break ground.

    Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, was declared a federal holiday in the U.S. in 2021, and commemorates the Emancipation Proclamation's enforcement and the liberation of the remainder of the enslaved both in Texas and throughout the newly reformed United States, which happened on June 19, 1865.

    The museum is the brainchild of Opal Lee, the Fort Worth activist and 2022 Nobel Peace Prize nominee. It's been in the works since 2021, when it was first announced; a design was revealed in 2022.

    It will be housed in a 50,000-square-foot space at the corner of Rosedale and Evans Avenue in the Historic Southside Fort Worth. Designed by BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group with African American-owned design and build firm KAI Enterprises, the museum will contain galleries, a business incubator, food hall, Black Box flex space, and a theater.

    The opening was originally targeted for June 2025. But the museum, which is expected to cost $70 million to build, has only raised $35 million so far, including donations from corporations like Bank of America, Frito-Lay North America, and BNSF Railroad.

    The original timetable has been pushed to 2026, according to museum CEO Jarred Howard, who told CBS 11 that 2026 was a "really ambitious goal," but that they want the museum to be sustainable.

    "So we won't put a shovel in the ground until we have the money to pay for it," he said.

    Lee, who received a Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Joe Biden in May, told BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group that it's "mind-boggling" to see it come to pass, stating that "I’ve had a little Juneteenth Museum in that very spot for almost 20 years, and to see it become a central place for discussion, collaboration, and learning seems to be the providential next step."

    In a statement, BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group partner Douglass Alligood called Juneteenth "not only American history – it is world history."

    "Our hope is that this building will become a gateway to the Historic Southside community of Fort Worth while serving as a national and global destination," Alligood said.

    Netflix House will debut in Dallas with murals from acclaimed artist

    A long-awaited immersive venue is opening in Dallas, and it will debut with local art on its walls: Netflix House, a year-round exhibit revolving around Netflix shows and movies, will open at Galleria Dallas on December 11, with two murals from award-winning Dallas multi-medium artist Jeremy Biggers.

    Netflix House is an immersive dive complete with merchandise store, film house, arcade, and restaurant-bar. When it opens, Dallas will be the second location in the U.S., following Philadelphia, where it debuted in November 2025, also with murals from a local artist.

    A graduate of Booker T. Washington High School for Performing and Visual Arts, Biggers is a renowned artist whose murals can be found spashed on walls across Dallas. Many, such as the Selena portrait on the wall outside Top Ten Records at 306 S. Bishop Ave., have become local landmarks.

    He's a logical choice, having worked with a number of corporations including Nike, Adidas, the Dallas Mavericks, and IBM, for whom he created the "THINK" mural in their Dallas corporate office. His works have also been exhibited nationally, including a 2024 solo exhibition "be safe out there bro" at Band of Vices, a gallery in Los Angeles.

    "Being chosen to be the artist to paint this mural, it would have been a disservice to myself, as well as the art scene in the city, not to try to infuse myself into it," he says.

    Biggers did two murals featuring his interpretation of Netflix figures including the Squid Game Young-hee doll, characters from KPop Demon Hunters and megahit series Stranger Things, plus Pandy and DJ Catnip, the best friends in the interactive series Gabby’s Dollhouse.

    Both murals are intensely colored works that incorporate Biggers' signature motif: a grid of polka dots spread across the image.

    • One is on the exterior of Netflix House, at the parking entrance, a colorful collage of characters, measuring 38 feet x 50 feet — the tallest mural Biggers has tackled. He painted it with aerosol; it took him two months to complete.
    • The other is on the interior, on the mall side entrance of Netflix House, measuring 57 feet x 12 feet — a study in moody blacks and blues, with accents of neon-red that give it a 3D effect.

    “I'm trying to tell the story of Netflix, and the story of where Netflix has been historically, where Netflix is headed in the future, and then also infusing my own narrative and my own language visually into that story,” he says.

    “They could have opened this anywhere, so for Dallas to be one of the very first locations — that’s a testament to us as a market, as consumers of arts and consumers in general," he says.
