Month Calendar

Out on the wily windy moors of downtown Dallas?! 

Celebrate the 160th anniversary of Juneteenth by learning about the history of Soul Food in America.

Únete a nosotros para una celebración mágica en nuestra Fiesta de Té Bilingüe con el Sombrerero Loco.

K'Poppin at Central is back! Get creative with free crafts, learn some K-pop dance moves with Steven Mai of Aeon Dance, and shop local vendors.
