Screen cutting edge films, videos and documentaries at the annual four-day Dallas VideoFest every Fall at several venues. Open to professional and non-professional filmmakers. The festival specializes in independent, alternative, and non-commercial media, presenting hard-to-find works rarely seen on television, in movie theaters, or elsewhere.

Natural wonders from the four corners of the earth cover five continents, 14 countries, 3 oceans and countless seas and rivers are found at the Dallas World Aquarium, where you'll embark on a world tour of the Earth's oceans and unique bodies of water through unique exhibits and attractions in addition to two gift shops and three restaurants. The fun begins before you enter the Dallas World Aquarium, where the Wilds of Borneo entrance ramp is lined with plants and animals that greet visitors. Once inside, you'll delight in a bird's-eye view of the Orinoco - Secrets of the River rainforest exhibit. Birds fly freely throughout the exhibit and go about their business of building nests and bringing home food for their young. Mammals saunter about, sharing the habitat with amphibians and reptiles.  Outside, the special South Africa exhibit will transport you to the exotic land of Madagascar. Permanent exhibits include fish, jellyfish and coral from around the world. Visitors can walk through a special tunnel that runs through one of the large tanks, where sharks and manta rays swim about. 

Visit the Mary Kay Museum, as much a testament to the hard-driving founder as it is to the legions of women who sell Mary Kay products around the globe. Tour the lobby and the office used by the founder, located on the 13th floor. The number 13 was Mary Kay's lucky number, and she founded the company on Friday the 13th.
