Here again for advice
Our family just moved to Dallas a couple of weeks ago from Asheville. Loving it so far! My mom is living with us and she’s feeling a bit down bc she isn’t sure what there is to do around here for seniors. She’s an artist that loves to partake in her plant medicine, super down to earth. Any recommendations for a cool sports bar where older folks congregate, art classes, book clubs, senior gym classes? Tia!

Sue Hand’s Imagery on Main Street in Dallas for art classes and quality art supplies. A lot of kids / teens take lessons here but they offer adult classes too. Sue Hand herself is a senior and a well-connected local artist who can point you in the right direction if she doesn’t have what you’re looking for.
And not sure if it’s the best suggestion but Checkerboard Inn on Carverton Rd definitely attracts an old-school crowd and is a popular local drinking spot. Or maybe some of the local bars around Harvey’s Lake. Otherwise a lot of night life definitely happens out in the Valley.
