thank you for being part of our first-ever summer series - an adventure brought to you by a committed and resourceful team who believe in the power of culture and connectivity . as dallas contemporary entered a new era and the summer, we thought it appropriate to concoct a little celebration. for that, we enlisted a group of friends (old and new), all with radically different expertise, businesses, and backgrounds, but with one shared ideal - the love of people . over fifteen local vendors set up for our daytime programming with offerings like florals, ceramics, vintage finds, books, and more. dallas's first poet laureate, @joaquinzihuatanejo popped in + gave us a powerful reading. @sanctummedwellness led mornings with yoga and sound baths + we even had puppies in the building with a pet adoption pop-up by @operationkindness . @dolfinrecords + @house__of__freqs came on board to curate the music program. they gave us a six dj lineup that included the likes of @benhixon + @_amyjanelle with live performances by @juuwah @92byc + @davidfnmorgan - all brought together by @_ghostdrank delectable visuals. cocktails flowed all night (responsibly) courtesy of our friends at @painteddonkeytequila + @townesvodka + @cactuskillerr was in high demand all summer with flash tattoos inspired by dc exhibitions! . we welcomed well over a thousand visitors during five events and are energized to keep it going - so stay tuned for our announcement . thank you to our dc summer series participants - @bestufriendoco @bottegadeflores @deepvellumbooks feat: @joaquinzihuatanejo + @logencure @dolfinrecords feat: @_amyjanelle @benhixon @davidfnmorgan @juuwah @92byc @rami_tla dynasty spirits with @painteddonkeytequila @townesvodka @gardenuity @_ghostdrank @ginodalcin @house__of__freqs feat: @c.b.smoove + @jordanwhereareyou @cactuskillerr @nylowool @olphactorycandles @operationkindness @ofcfoodtruck @rambleraustin @ribzclothing @sanctummedwellness @sando.itchi @tradeoakcliff feat: @corriepocta + @charli.no_e @virginhotelsdal + @xamancafe . 📸 @iamthezizz
