2024 FAIR ARTISTS

Deep Ellum is a place that has given us amazing memories throughout our lives. Whether it is the numerous venues that Andrew has performed at with previous musical acts as a vocalist and guitarist, living nearby and going to the local restaurants/bars, or walking the streets at past arts festivals as loyal patrons, Deep Ellum means a lot to us. We participated in the 2023 Deep Ellum Community Arts Fair and would love to be a part of the event again in 2024! We hope to hear from you soon, thank you for your consideration.

Deep Elum has always been a community that has been endeared to me. The community itself holds such a beautiful spectrum of people from the multi-millionaire to the unsheltered trying to make it through the day and the artistic expression that synonymous with Deep Elum appropriately represents her people and their vibrant enthusiasm that is uniquely Dallas. Deep Elum is an institution that has remained both progressive and timeless.

I have not been doing the art show circuit in Texas long, but already I have found that I am much happier and my work is appreciated much more in a diverse, open-minded environment by people with a touch of madness like me. Deep Ellum is one of the very rare places in Texas where that spark can still be found.

It is the heartbeat of acceptance and love for all things art related in the Dfw area.

I am Deep Ellum.

The world. I've been a patron since the late '90s, early 00s, and have lived and worked here for over 10 years. I cut my teeth at The Church, Trees, Curtain Club, Galaxy Club... oh and my mom lived here for a while in the same lofts I'm in now. The best chicken fried steak is at AllGood Cafe, and I will die on that delicious hill.

Everything! Being a Dallas native and artist it provided inspiration and blessed me with opportunities.

The town/city of Deep Ellum means (to me) a great sense of hand made, punk-rock, colorful, do it yourself art community with deep roots of a do it yourself funky style.

As an artist and musician, Deep Ellum has been to me a blend of Dallas nostalgia along with cutting edge artistry, with introductions to new concepts. Although some new concepts in the past have missed, I still enjoy exploring what Texas artists have to offer.

I have lived in the Dallas area my whole life. We started going to Deep Ellum back in the 80's when it first became club, restaurant and shopping destination. Through the years I have been in Deep Ellum for concerts, meals and shopping. Have done quite a few projects down there when I was in the construction business. Recently I have been showing art there as well. Just a great place for many things.

Texas is my birth state and I love coming back home. My hubby is also an artist and we live in Arkansas. We have totally enjoyed coming back home and participating in the Deep Ellum Arts Festival...we have received so much support from everyone and the show is always a huge success for both of us.

I see it as one our North Texas culture districts. My husband goes there for concerts with one of our sons, and I go there for art.

Deep Ellum is a part of Texas with so much soul. Deep Ellum drives to maintain and grow the arts in this vibrant community. Deep Ellum offers a space for new and recurring artists to showcase art. Keeping the culture and the vibe stronger than ever in the great state of Texas.

Deep Ellum means a vibrant Dallas neighborhood known for its eclectic ambience. It's a hub for creativity and self-expression, where people come together to celebrate art, music, and individuality.
