Description

Annette Strauss Artist Square is the new home for the city's premier outdoor performing arts venue. It is being designed by internationally renowned architectural firm Foster + Partners. Named for the late former Mayor of Dallas, a passionate supporter of the arts and the Dallas Arts District, Strauss Square will host a variety of outdoor events ranging from concerts to theatrical and dance performances to multi-day festivals, accommodating audiences of up to 5,000 in a serene open-air setting. Strauss Square will also be a defining feature of the Elaine D. and Charles A. Sammons Park, the planned outdoor environment that will unify all of the Center's venues. Combined with Sammons Park, the space will accommodate even thousands more, allowing for a new level of programming which will encourage even broader community involvement.
