It seems most people in Dallas aren't aware of a really exciting arts complex in development: La Reunion Texas. It is an arts residency program to be built on 35 lush acres in Oak Cliff.
La Reunion is named after a utopian community that existed in the Dallas area over 100 years ago (Reunion Tower is named after them!)
Last night, I went to a reception at the new La Reunion headquarters at LRTX Gallery to hear the latest in their plans. My friend and La Reunion Executive Director, Sara Jane Semrad, along with her board, held a juried architecture competition for design ideas for the La Reunion facility. Over 130 architects from 6 continents registered, and 68 submitted plans! It's called "Make Space for Art"
All of the designs are very interesting, as eco-friendly as possible.
This is such an exciting project! La Reunion is raising funds and seeking sponsors at this point, and I can't wait to see this develop!
They have lots of opportunities for communitiy involvement already, check it out at : www.lareuniontx.org
This is great news to share with prospective buyers, especially those who are relocating to Dallas and who might have an interest in the arts!
