Current Exhibitions

 Pioneering Energy-Capturing Technology

 Catch the Wind, Power the Airport!

Dallas Love Field (DAL) has partnered with Dallas-based JetWind Power Corporation to showcase an innovative way of generating clean energy by capturing wind created by aircraft engine exhaust.

First introduced in Dallas at the 2017 Airports Going Green Conference, JetWind’s concept has evolved through years of testing and refinement. In 2024, DAL became the first airport in the world to install JetWind’s production units. Today, five Energy Capturing Pods located near Gate 9 use small wind turbines and solar panels to collect energy from jet blast and sunlight. Together, these pods generate about 20 kilowatt-hours of clean energy each day, enough to power public charging stations throughout the terminal

This exhibit invites passengers and employees to experience a fascinating example of how Dallas Love Field is transforming previously unused energy into a source of clean energy for everyday use. By highlighting JetWind’s technology, DAL demonstrates its commitment to sustainability, innovation, and forward-thinking solutions for the future of aviation.

Past Exhibitions

Made with Love by Dallas Area Fiber Artists (DAFA)

Made with Love is a collective alphabet created by members of the Dallas Area Fiber Artists. Each artist designed a single letter using their own fiber art techniques – stitching, quilting, collage, weaving, wrapping, felting, embellishing, and sculptural textile work. Together, the letters form a joyful message that represents both the spirit of the guild and the heart of fiber arts: creativity shared through many hands.

This installation reflects the beauty of individuality within the community. Every letter is a tiny world, shaped by the artist’s materials, imagination, and touch. As a group, the alphabet becomes more than the sum of its parts – a reminder that handmade work carries warmth, intention, and connection.

The Dallas Area Fiber Artists (DAFA) is a nonprofit guild committed to supporting, teaching, and celebrating the fiber arts through exhibitions, workshops, and community engagement. Learn more: www.dallasfiberartists.org.

The Stewpot art exhibition includes a sampling of paintings from their gallery. There are many unique styles and aesthetics that are represented, as each artist has their own style and vision. The Stewpot provides studio space and materials for artists who may not have the means to purchase canvas and paint for the purpose of creative expression.
