About this Event

Fair Park, a celebration of art, architecture, and industry, is a cultural and historic gem in the heart of Dallas.

Architecturally, Fair Park is one of the world’s largest collections of Art Deco buildings with a unique design approach that Chief Architect George Dahl described as “Texanic.” Integral to the buildings and the grounds are numerous works by renowned artists that celebrate the history and achievements of Texas during the first 100 years of independence. First established for the Dallas State Fair in 1886, Fair Park was transformed in 1936 for the Texas Centennial Exposition. It is one of Dallas’ greatest cultural assets, hosting events year-round and exhibitions and serving as home to numerous cultural institutions. In 1986, it was recognized as a National Historic Landmark.

In partnership with Fair Park First, the Dallas Architecture and Design Exchange presents lunchtime tram tours on the third Wednesday of the month at several times throughout the year. The tour begins at noon at the Parry Street entrance gate adjacent to the DART stop.
NOTE:

The duration of the tour ranges is 2 hours. There is some walking (1/4 of a mile or less) to allow participants to get up close to some of the artwork. Please note any mobility challenges at the time of registration so that the tour route can be adjusted to accommodate all guests.
