Description


Showcasing spectacular cultural, performing, visual and culinary arts, CityArts Festival will take place May 7‐9 within Fair Park in Dallas, Texas.

A work of art itself, Fair Park is a national historic landmark and American treasure that boasts the world’s largest collection of art deco exhibit buildings, art and sculpture.

The free, community-based festival will encompass the Esplanade, the Automobile Building, Court of Honor, and the Lagoon. Festivities will be held both indoors and out and will include free admission to the Fair Park’s outstanding museums during specific hours. Musical entertainment, dance, and other performing arts will be featured on multiple stages.

A Children’s Area will include arts and crafts, interactive activities and special entertainment. The Culinary Showcase will host local chef’s cooking demonstrations and samplings, along with wine pairings, wine tasting and mixing sessions. A collection of Art Cars – drivable works of art that have been modified as art to reflect the personal artistic impression of owners – will also be on display.

The always-popular juried Art MarketPlace, coordinated by The 500 Inc., will expand this year, attracting more than 200 visual artists from throughout the country and huge audiences of art aficionados.
