Bryan’s House, a nonprofit providing services to special-needs children and children affected by HIV and AIDS, is moving to Oak Cliff. The nonprofit is taking the former Springhill Montessori School building at 802 S. Beckley. The school is moving to Fort Worth Avenue. Bryan’s House, established in 1988 as a safe haven for babies and children dying of AIDS, previously had one location on Forest Lane. Now they will provide services from the location on Beckley and a second location in West Dallas. The nonprofit has plans to open multiple locations in Dallas in the future.
The city’s Office of Cultural Affairs has $50,000 to spend on murals for four retaining walls at the Oak Cliff end of the Jefferson Viaduct, near the Oak Farms plant. The city is calling for “submission of qualifications from professional artists and/or artist teams to work with the City of Dallas and the community to create a largescale mural for the concrete retaining walls.” The murals should relate to Oak Cliff, “taking inspiration from the people, landmarks and overall creative spirit” of Oak Cliff. The call for submissions states the city “is particularly interested” in artists who have a connection to Oak Cliff. Email submissions to oakcliffmuralproject@gmail.com. For questions, contact Kendall Ferguson at 214.670.5639 or kendall.ferguson@ dallascityhall.com.
