Program Description

Event Details

No, we're not trying to bring Pawnee and Eagleton together, but we do want to encourage Dallasites of all beliefs to vote! At the Dallas Unity Concert, you'll hear live bands, meet a li'l horse and even be a part of a karate dance party. While you're here, you can also register to vote, learn about candidates and learn your voting rights. Plus, visit the Smithsonian's traveling exhibit The Bias Inside Us before it leaves Dallas. While you're here, connect with the City of Dallas by attending the budget townhall or engaging with City resources and services.
