    “Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V.

  • Fair Park Prospective Future Tenants Request for Information Dallas, Texas
    FAIR PARK PROSPECTIVE FUTURE TENANTS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION DALLAS, TEXAS Fair Park First is seeking Request for Information (RFI) from organizations interested in opportunities for tenancy at Fair Park. This RFI is intended to attract business owners and institutions who share a common vision and innovative ideas for activating Fair Park. Proposals will be considered for uses such as recreational, civic, cultural, educational, entertainment, arts, retail, food and beverage, and other park activating uses. FAIR PARK HISTORY Fair Park is a 277-acre park campus located in Dallas, Texas. Fair Park is approximately three (3) miles southeast of downtown Dallas and is registered as a Dallas Landmark and National Historic Landmark. Fair Park hosted the Texas Centennial Exposition in 1936 and most of the Art Deco Buildings were built in preparation for the celebration of Texas’ Centennial. The State Fair began in 1886 on land donated to the City of Dallas. Over the years the Park has grown to include many cultural institutions including performance venues, museums and sports stadiums. The historic Cotton Bowl sits majestically inside Fair Park serving as one of the identifiable landmarks that populate the landscape. The Hall of State and the Tower Buildings evoke historic milestones and reflect the many cultures inhabiting Texas. BACKGROUND In 2017 & 2018 the City of Dallas fostered a competitive process to determine which non-profit organization, with experience and intent, would manage Fair Park as a Private Professional manager. Fair Park First was selected through a lengthy evaluation, review, and public process to become the City of Dallas’ partner. Our team comprised of Spectra, Biederman Redevelopment Ventures (BRV), In The City For Good and Fair Park First was selected and awarded the contract on October 24, 2018.

Teacher’s Materials Teacher’s The Origins of Art Deco The term Art Deco comes from the 1925 Paris Ex- hibition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (which translates to the “International Exhibi- tion of Decorative and Industrial Arts”). The exposition was dedicated to the display of modern decorative arts, exhibiting the work of thousands of designers from all over Europe. Several countries sponsored pavilions, deco- rative temporary buildings that housed exhibits showcas- ing the splendors of their national culture. The exposition attracted over 16 million visitors, marking the high point of the first phase of Art Deco. The Primavera Pavilion, inspired by African thatched huts. The host city played a very large role in the exhibition. Following the devastation wrought by the Great War, Europe entered a rebuilding era, and France was determined to lead the way. Parisi- ans had traditionally been trendsetters in fashion and the arts, and once again they sought to be the world leaders in style. The exhibition helped to es- tablish the preeminence of French taste and luxury goods.

  • Alternative Currents in Dallas's Religious Traditions
    Swimming in Other Streams Alternative Currents in Dallas's Religious Traditions BY J. GoRDON MELTON ~e are two ways oflooking at religion in the state oITexas. In the first instance, we begin with the singular dominance ofTexas by just three religious groups-the Southern Baptists, T the United Methodists, and the Roman Catholics.Their membership accounts for about half argue, of the state's population, with a few additional groups-the Churches of Christ, the National ICan r Baptists (three groups), the African Methodists (three groups), the Presbyterians, two Lutheran partict groups, the Episcopalians, and several Pentecostal groups-filling out the next tier of religious is hon Texans. One could tell the story of Texas religion by limiting the account to these dozen group ~ anoth( groups and do very little, if any, injustice to it. some Additionally, this approach reflects the reality of religion at the national level, where over and sy half of the American population has chosen to be members of a mere twenty-five Christian larger denominations, each of which has at least one million members. Upon examination they gory a the L; are seen to represent the current spectrum of Christian belief and practice. Their position is set of strengthened by considering the forty additional denominations that have at least 100,000 them members and which also present the san1e spectrum of Christian theology, social stances, and the CJ public behavior. The worldview represented by the 25 big denominations is identical to the Christ worldview held by the additional 900+ Christian denominations in America, which together who f include between 70 and 80 percent of the American population.
