Deep Ellum Outdoor Market

As a kid, I moved around a LOT (I guess that is the price you pay when your dad is in the moving business). I’ve had the pleasure of living in Chicago, IL; Ann Arbor, MI; Minneapolis, MN, and Dallas, TX. One thing that ALL of these cities have in common is their support of the Arts.

Some of my favorite childhood memories are the hours I spent hanging out with my family, walking through local street fairs. I LOVED eating local treats, picking out handmade jewelry with my mom, and chatting up local artists with my dad. Dad always tries to incorporate local art into my family’s homes.

In an effort to support local artists, artisans, vendors, and fellow makers, I’m going to start sharing some local hot spots, events and/or gems that I’ve found in the DFW area.
