The Bishop Arts District is a small shopping and entertainment district in north Oak Cliff, Dallas, Texas (USA), near the intersection of Bishop Street and Davis Street. The Bishop Arts District is immediately southwest of Downtown Dallas.

The Bishop Arts District is home to over 60 boutiques, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, theaters and art galleries. Located in the heart of North Oak Cliff and only five minutes from downtown, we boast one of Dallas' most unique neighborhoods with our historical shopping district full of great finds, good eats, and good ol' Oak Cliff charm! While many of the shops stay open late on the weekends to provide a fun shop, stroll, and eat environment for visitors, the Bishop Arts District is populated with many independently-owned businesses.

Event Details ...

Cost: FREE for the guided walking tour, optional lunch afterward at your own expense.

Parking: A variety of options throughout the area.

Before the Event: Socializing at “The Salty”.

Meeting Point: 9:30 am at “The Salty” doughnut and coffee shop: 414 West Davis = Dallas, great food and beverages and restroom (arrive early). Look for your hosts Robert (wearing a fedora-style hat) and Michele, along with a group of friendly people. We’ll depart on our tour at approximately 9:45 am.

Icebreaker Introductions: We should have a good-sized group so instead of everyone introducing themselves to the group we will get to know each other by distributing blank stickers and colored markers and we’ll ask everyone to write down on their sticker: 1). first name. 2). favorite food. 3). dream vacation. Example: or “Michele - Strawberries - Fiji” or “Robert - Chocolate - Tokyo”.

Itinerary: At approximately 9:45 am we’ll depart The Salt and proceed south on Bishop Avenue, although we’ll often be detouring down some of the side streets. There is a lot of great art, particularly murals, and many nice shops and restaurants.

After the Event: Optional lunch afterward at a TBD location?
