Saturday's event is one of many marking this year's 150th anniversary of Dallas' historic Deep Ellum neighborhood. Saturday's event will begin just down the street from the center beneath an overpass, where attendees will experience the Center’s outdoor installation, “Invisible Deep Ellum,” followed by a live music performance at the new center by the Light Crust Doughboys.

From a black-tie kickoff on January 19 to a parade, a music festival, a storytelling summit, and more, the Deep Ellum neighborhood just east of downtown Dallas is gearing up for a 2023 to remember.
