The Dallas Museum of Art and Dallas-based Pariveda Solutions Inc. have launched a mobile application for the museum intended to enhance visitor experience.

According to a press release, the DMA app is available free on iOS devices, and it will allow users to browse and locate works of art in the museum’s collection and current exhibitions.

MUSEUM’S APP WILL HAVE A GALLERY PREVIEW

It also will allow users to explore programs being offered at the DMA, and has an interactive map of the DMA that contains points of interest and gallery preview.

The app was created as part of Pariveda Solutions’ Summer Internship Program, the release said. It’s the sixth time the Pariveda has partnered with a North Texas nonprofit in the program.

Interns in the Pariveda program learn the inner workings of being a consultant, the release said.

“With more people accessing information via their mobile phones, this new application makes accessing information about the DMA easy for their more than 700,000 annual visitors.”
