Crow Museum Community Day 2026 at UT Dallas
Crow Museum of Asian Art hosts a free Community Day on Saturday, September 26, 2026 from noon to 4 p.m. at the UT Dallas Athenaeum with art-making, live programming, and open galleries.
Free admission
Crow Museum of Asian Art opens its fall season with Community Day on Saturday, September 26, 2026 from noon to 4:00 p.m. at the Edith and Peter O'Donnell Jr. Athenaeum on the UT Dallas campus. The museum and its programs are always free.
The museum’s calendar currently promises a look at contemporary and traditional art across mediums, but it does not yet publish a performance or activity schedule. Three exhibitions will be open by Community Day: Southeast Asian textiles in Unseen Worlds, the immersive installation The Hedge of Halomancy, and New Deal Texas and the West. Go for the galleries first and treat any workshops or performances announced later as a bonus.
Park free in Lot M East directly in front of the museum entrance at 777 Loop Road SW in Richardson. The building is a short indoor walk once you clear the lot, which makes this an easy family stop before evening plans.
Our take: use Community Day as the calm DFW Mid-Autumn Saturday afternoon, then drive about 15 minutes north for Otsukimi in Plano from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. If food is the priority instead, MoMo Festival runs the same day in Irving.
When: September 26, 2026 (12:00–4:00 p.m.)
Where: Crow Museum of Asian Art at UT Dallas, 777 Loop Road SW, Richardson, TX

Velveting, explained as a Chinese kitchen technique
Velveting is the Chinese prep step that keeps stir-fry chicken and shrimp tender instead of rubbery: a cornstarch-and-oil coat, a rest, then a quick par-cook before the wok. Here is how it works and why diaspora cooks are finally seeing the name match the method.
