The Dallas Museum of Art is an art museum located in the Arts District of downtown Dallas, Texas, USA along Woodall Rodgers Freeway between St. Paul and Harwood.

The Dallas Museum of Art's history began with the establishment in 1903 of the Dallas Art Association, which initially exhibited paintings in the Dallas Public Library. In 1909, the association's collection received a permanent home in the Free Public Art Gallery of Dallas, located in Fair Park. The museum relocated several times over the years, only reaching its current downtown location in 1984, when it also officially took its current name.

The Eastern Orthodox Church (including Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, etc.) refers to the single, theologically unified, multinational Christian community that views itself as:

The historical, unbroken continuation of the original Christian community established by Jesus Christ and the Twelve Apostles, having maintained unbroken the link between its clergy and the Apostles by means of Apostolic Succession and Sacred Tradition.

The ecclesial communion which has never fallen into error nor deviated from the beliefs and traditions of the original Christian body, but rather has gone to great lengths to preserve them for future generations. All theological concepts, all explanations and expansions are compared to and validated by the original core beliefs; no deviation is allowed.

The Christian body which most closely adheres to the canons of the first seven ecumenical councils held between the 4th and the 8th centuries.

The complex is registered as a National Historic Landmark and is home to nine museums, six performance facilities, a lagoon, and the largest ferris wheel in North America.

The Winspear Opera House will be an Opera House in the Arts District of downtown Dallas, Texas (USA). It will be part of the new Dallas Center for the Performing Arts which is due to open in 2009. It is designed in the classic Italian horseshoe configuration and seats 2,200. It will be the new home of Dallas Opera.

Designed by Foster and Partners, led by Lord Norman Foster (the 1999 Pritzker Architecture Prize Laureate - the architecture equivalent of the Nobel Prize), the Opera's new venue at the Dallas Center was made possible by a $42-million gift from Margot and Bill Winspear, for whom the opera house will be named. Performances are planned to begin during the 2009/2010 season.

It is planned that the Center will become the location for main stage productions of the Dallas Opera, Dallas Theater Center, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, Texas Ballet Theater, Anita M. Martinez Ballet Folklorico, and many other performing arts organizations. The London firm Sound Space will develop the acoustical design of the opera house and the acoustics will be engineered specifically for performances of opera and musical theater. However, the stages will be equipped with appropriate flooring for performances of ballet and other forms of dance.
