Culture alive and kicking in DFW

I went to the third Conspirator’s Ball last night with Andrew and his friend Christina. The event is there to survey folks about Dallas’ cultural life, and provide an open venue for venting. The venting is mostly of the liberal political nature. The evening was filled with poetry from Clebo Rainey and various others from the audience.

I found the most provocative speakers were Dean from alt7.com and Chris from keep Dallas plastic. Both of them understood the need to build up an audience for Dallas’ existing cultural creatives. Or maybe I’m just hearing what I want to hear from what they said since that’s one of my personal goals now that I’m back in Dallas.
