Summer Sizzlers
Who knew where Little Egypt was located?
Why did Dallas rise to prominence instead of towns like Denton or Decatur?
What is stored in the basement of the Hall of State?
Join us as we explore these topics as well as
three others throughout the summer!
Preservation Dallas is pleased to present the 2019 season of Summer Sizzlers – our popular series of educational lectures and tours, offering insights into preservation topics, architecture and history.
Each session will begin at 6 p.m. at various locations. Free parking is available at each location or on the street.
The DeGolyer House
Tuesday, August 6 // 6pm
Dallas Arboretum & Botanical Garden,
8525 Garland Road
Join us for a private tour of the 1940 DeGolyer House on the east side of White Rock Lake and a talk about the history of the estate. This Scott & Schutt Spanish Colonial home was sold to the city of Dallas in 1976 and the property eventually became the location for the Dallas Arboretum.
