Meet Arturo

Who’s Arturo?

He’s the Dallas Museum of Art’s Family Mascot!

Arturo, a fun and friendly parrot, is based on a ceramic vessel from Peru that is 1,200 to 1,800 years old. The artist was probably inspired by the colorful macaws of South America. When you visit the Museum, look for Arturo to point the way to family-friendly activities and programs.
