Good morning, Dev Test County. The rainbow flags are ready to unfurl across Dallas as Pride 2025 announces an unprecedented 10-event celebration spanning the entire month of June. From David Archuleta's Metroball performance to the family-friendly Pride Zone, the city is preparing a spectacular showcase of love and identity that promises something for everyone โ whether you're marching in the iconic parade or joining the Pride Bar Crawl on June 21.
Meanwhile, the arts scene is flourishing in multiple forms. Dallas Theater Center's "Take A Bow" gala just raised an impressive $450,000 while showcasing homegrown talent instead of outside performers. And foodies have reason to celebrate as the James Beard-recognized Molino Olลyล finds a permanent East Dallas home after years as a pop-up. Their heirloom corn creations and regenerative farming practices will transform 4422 Gaston Avenue into a culinary destination by early 2026.

๐ Dallas Pride 2025 explodes with 10 spectacular events this June. From the iconic Pride Parade to the Arts District Block Party, the city will celebrate love and identity across multiple venues. Highlights include Metroball 2025 featuring David Archuleta, Arlington Pride with Ginger Minj, and the Dallas Pride Music Festival showcasing over 200 vendors. Families can enjoy the Family Pride Zone while adults might opt for the Pride Bar Crawl on June 21, all creating a month-long celebration of the LGBTQ+ community.
๐ญ Dallas Theater Center's gala nets $450,000 for the arts. The "Take A Bow" Centerstage event, held at Fashion Industry Gallery and chaired by DTC Board Trustee Hamilton Sneed, showcased local talent instead of importing outside performers. Sneed made the inspired choice to feature the Theater Center's own staff and Brierley Resident Acting Company members as the evening's entertainment. The celebration earned enthusiastic reviews from the art-loving audience while raising substantial funds for the Dallas Theater Center. The success represents a collaborative triumph between the DTC staff, leadership, and generous philanthropists.
๐ฎ Mexican pop-up Molino Olลyล finds permanent home in East Dallas. The James Beard-recognized cuisine from chefs Olivia Lรณpez and Jonathan Percival will open at 4422 Gaston Avenue in early 2026. Known for their heirloom corn and regenerative farming practices, the restaurant will feature both a multi-course tasting room offering dishes like pecado con moles and a street-style Fonda serving wagyu suadero tacos. The five-star-rated pop-up thanked loyal customers who "waited for specific days, sent DMs, stood in long lines, and still came back when we sold out."
