The Block

Guided visits of La Mansana de Chinati/The Block offer visitors direct engagement with Donald Judd’s art and vision. Judd’s private living and working spaces provide firsthand experience of his concept of permanent installation in Marfa, Texas. Visits are approximately 90 minute to 1 hour 45 minutes.

Directions

Visits to La Mansana de Chinati/The Block start at the unmarked, gated entrance to the Block located at 400 West El Paso Street, across from the former Godbold feedmill. Late arrivals cannot be accommodated. The entrance is a large wooden gate located on the El Paso Street side of the adobe-walled complex. The cross street is Kelly Street. Parking on the feedmill side of the street is prohibited.

Planning Your Visit

Guided visits begin promptly as scheduled. Doors open 10 minutes prior to scheduled visit times. Late arrivals cannot be accommodated once the visit commences.

Guided visits require visitors to walk in and out of a number of buildings. The spaces are not wheelchair-accessible. When booking a guided visit, please consult a Judd Foundation staff member by emailing marfa@juddfoundation.org to see how we can best accommodate you.
