Taking place on May 30, 2013, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the 300 block of Cole Street, the third Design District Market will combine all the characteristics of our previous markets (the vendors, beer, wine, food trucks, music) and set them against a warm spring evening. The market aims to give the Design District a neighborhood block party/street fair of its own, with live bands, local artisans, Community Beer Co. beer and plenty of food trucks.
Live music will be provided by The Venetian Sailors and Catamaran. Food trucks present will include Yellow Belly Food Truck, Pompeii Food Truck, and Eat Jo Dawgs.
There are 40+ local vendors setting up shop; details are available on the vendor list below.
Special thanks to our sponsors: Community Beer Company and Yelp! Dallas.
About the Market
The Design District Market was started by neighborhood developer Jim Lake Companies to fill a need in the Design District for free, fun public events, hoping to cultivate a sense of community between neighborhood residents, business owners and visitors through a shared experience. Bringing over 1,500 people to the Design District during each event, the outdoor street fair has proved extremely popular. As one vendor put it:
“You guys better do this again or else there might be riots in the DDD streets...Everyone we talked to that works or lives in the area were all so excited for a block party type event in their neighborhood.”
About the organizer
Jim Lake Companies is a commercial real estate and redevelopment firm founded in 1964. With nearly 2 million square feet in the Design District and Bishop Arts, JLC places a high value on community development, quality of life, and urban revitalization in its neighborhoods of focus.
