DOWNTOWN. Everyone in Fort Worth knows the angels on Bass Performance Hall. In fact, it's almost impossible to imagine the city without their presence and this grand tribute to the arts. Completed in 1998, the stately limestone building, located in Sundance Square, is home to numerous cultural organizations, including the Texas Ballet Theater, Fort Worth Symphony, and the Fort Worth Opera. Patrons to the hall are regaled by theater shows, Broadway productions, and a variety of musical artists. The magnificent structure, designed by David Schwarz, is considered the last great performance hall built in the 20th century. Its angels, who play golden trumpets, are 240-feet tall and were carved by sculptor Márton Váró. A gift shop and tours are available.

CULTURAL DISTRICT. This entertainment venue honors comedian-cowboy Will Rogers with a sculpture of him and his horse out front. Inside, his bust boasts a flat, shiny nose due to visitors rubbing it for luck. Built in 1933, the complex hosts the Southwestern Exposition and Livestock Show and Rodeo each January. The state-of-the-art Equestrian Center's annual horse exhibitions include national cutting horse competitions, along with Arabian, Miniature, Apaloosa and Painted Horse shows. A flea market is held in Cattle Barn #1 each weekend, except during the Rodeo and Livestock Show's run.
