SUMMARY:Fair Park Tram Tour
DESCRIPTION:Fair Park\, a celebration of art\, architecture\, and industry\, is a cultural and historic gem in the heart of Dallas. Join us for a motorized tour of the park while we fill you in on its amazing past and talk about its exciting future. Architecturally\, Fair Park is one of the world’s largest collections of Art Deco buildings with a unique design approach that Chief Architect George Dahl described as “Texanic.” Integral to the buildings and the grounds are numerous works by renowned artists that celebrate the history and achievements of Texas during the first 100 years of independence. First established for the Dallas State Fair in 1886\, Fair Park was transformed in 1936 for the Texas Centennial Exposition. It is one of Dallas’ greatest cultural assets\, hosting events year-round and exhibitions and serving as home to numerous cultural institutions. In 1986\, it was recognized as a National Historic Landmark. In partnership with Fair Park First \, the Dallas Architecture and Design Exchange presents hour-long lunchtime tram tours on the third Wednesday of the month at several times throughout the year. Tickets are $10 for general admission\, and $5 for students and seniors. The tour begins at noon at the Parry Street entrance gate adjacent to the DART stop. Seats are limited – reserve your seat in advance. NOTE: The duration of the tour ranges from 1.5 to 2 hours. There is some walking (1/4 of a mile or less) to allow participants to get up close to some of the artwork. Please note any mobility challenges at the time of registration so that the tour route can be adjusted to accommodate all guests. \nSource and tickets: https://www.aiadallas.org/event/fair-park-tram-tour-12162026/

SUMMARY:Upstream: Digital Tech Meetup at Second Draught
DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://luma.com/timbergrove Upstream: Digital Tech Meetup – Monthly Social 🍻 No stage. No slides. No panels. Just upstream operators\, engineers\, founders\, and digital leaders getting together over beer and pizza. This is the informal side of the Upstream Digital Tech community. A casual\, vendor-light happy hour for people navigating digital change in oil and gas and wanting real conversations. It’s not a presentation. It’s not a pitch night. It’s a room full of people who are actually doing the work. A place to: • Meet others working at the intersection of upstream and technology • Trade field stories\, lessons learned\, and hard truths • Talk AI\, IoT\, data\, automation\, and deployment realities • Build real relationships without a formal agenda Whether you’re deploying technology\, evaluating it\, building it\, or leading teams through it\, you’ll fit right in. Come as you are. Bring a friend. Stay as long as you like. 📍 Second Draught @ The Ion District\, Midtown Houston 🗓️ Second Thursday of every month | ⏰ 5:30 PM 👉 Reserve your spot.
