The Texas Theatre: Eclectic Dallas Entertainment

April 4, 2012 By Leave a Comment

The Texas Theatre rolls out a variety of entertainment for any night of the week: independent and blockbuster movies, plays, and live music. The theatre has a colorful history, including a brush with Lee Harvey Oswald, and was closed down for roughly 15 years. Only recently re-opened in 2010, the theatre retains some historic details as well as an eclectic vibe. The bar opens around 5 p.m. and makes a nice space to hang out before a show. Patrons are encouraged to bring their own vinyl records for the turntable. If you go to watch a movie, two screens show independent films that recently ended their larger runs: Tuesdays are B-movies, while Fridays offer themed double-features. Other events include open mic and special film talks. Check the website for more information!

Nasher Sculpture Center: An Artistic Oasis in Downtown Dallas

March 7, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Amid the bustling crowds and looming skyscrapers of Dallas, an urban retreat exists in the Nasher Sculpture Center. Devoted to the display and preservation of modern sculpture, the Nasher Sculpture Center features over three hundred works by artists like Matisse, Picasso, Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons. An outdoor garden featuring 25 large-scale pieces creates a landscape for thought and relaxation with stone pathways, pools, and weeping willow trees. The museum’s roof, made of delicate glass panes and utilizing a sunscreen device, lets in natural light and connects the indoor art to the outdoor garden space. This “roof-less” museum is well-known for its use of design to enhance the viewing of art,  and its extensive collection of sculptures from all over the world using a wide variety of materials. With a gift shop, an auditorium that opens to the outdoors, and a café, the Nasher Sculpture garden is a serene spot to get away from the busy city.

West Village: Fine Dining and Shopping in a Hip Atmosphere

February 1, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Opened in 2001, West Village is a shopping and dining district with a young, urban vibe. The shops at West Village have a wide range of appeal, featuring both one-of-a-kind stores like Cowboy Cool clothing and Trousseau intimate apparel and big name retailers like Gap and Borders Books and Music. The gem of the West Village crown—the Magnolia movie theater—is a five-screen upscale theater that screens a variety of sophisticated films including indies not found anywhere else in Dallas. Featuring various screenings throughout the year, the Magnolia Theater hosts exclusive screenings and talkbacks with local filmmakers as well as professionals at the national and international levels. Two residential towers create a neighborhood feel in West Village, and draw people into the area’s many restaurants and lounges—including Grimaldi’s pizza and Mi Cocina. In a convenient location just a mile north of downtown Dallas, West Village’s many distinct features make it a must-visit.
