Academy Door and Repair

Return to the Civil War era by visiting Old City Park, where you can experience what life was like for ordinary Texans over 100 years ago. Visit the fully restored, Antebellum-style Millermore Mansion and the finest collection of 19th-century pioneer and Victorian homes and commercial buildings in Texas. These buildings were moved from North Central Texas to provide a recreational space where visitors can connect with the past, inspire the future, and celebrate Dallas' rich diversity. The Park is used to educate and celebrate the history, support local artists, provide recreational activities, and serve as a venue for events for adults and families year-round.

If you're a fan of cutting-edge films, videos, and documentaries, you won't want to miss the annual four-day Dallas VideoFest every Fall at several venues. The festival is open to professional and non-professional filmmakers and specializes in independent, alternative, and non-commercial media. You'll  see hard-to-find works that are rarely seen on television, in movie theaters, or elsewhere, despite their artistic excellence and cultural and social relevance. It's a great opportunity to discover new and exciting voices in the world of film and media.

Quietly reflect on one of the most spiritually-based art forms at the Crow Collection of Asian Art. The collection combines pieces from China, Japan, India, and Southeast Asia, each with distinct cultural and artistic traditions. The museum is committed to promoting learning and dialogue about the arts and cultures of Asia, and they are preserving and sharing these treasures with the public. By fostering compassion and inclusivity through their work, the museum is helping to build a greater awareness and shared sense of what it means to be human.
