Transforming the Ordinary into the ExtraordinaryThe DART Station Art & Design Program is a testament to the powerful synergy created by a shared vision and collaboration.Throughout the development of DART Rail and the Trinity Railway Express, engineers, architects, artists and neighborhood advisory committees worked together from station concept to completion. Each station is a celebration of community: expressing our area's rich diversity of cultures and our architectural history. Art and design elements both acknowledge our human differences and affirm our shared humanity. The result is a series of passenger facilities that are far more than convenient transit points; they are uncommon works of art. The DART Station Art & Design Program does not merely create art for public places; it creates the places themselves. Come see a superb collection of public art that engages us in the present, reminds us of our past and beckons us to consider our collective future. |

Spend a morning, afternoon, or a day. Check out how common elements in a transit station – canopies, columns, pavers, windscreens, fencing and landscaping – become uncommon art and design elements. See for yourself why DART has won numerous awards for its Station Art & Design Program and its amazing collection of public art. Never ridden DART before? No problem.
