Friday Co. (225 S Charles St, Lewisville, 214-814-0545) produced free hand sanitizer for first responders during the lockdown. Now you can buy it from them, too. With their outside facilities now open, at 4pm you and Pop can eat, drink, and shop for gifts — and hand sanitizer — at Cocktails with DAD in the Whiskey Garden.

18 Juneteenth is not just one day in Fort Worth. At Thursday least not this year. Four days of celebrations kick off at 7pm with the Juneteenth Pop-Up Virtual Film Screening sponsored by Jim Austin Online and the Denton Film Festival. Friday and Saturday, there is a two-day Juneteenth Livestreaming Music Festival featuring zydeco and the blues with headliner Fat Daddy. Saturday, you can view a stage play by Greg Ellis — former all-pro defensive end for the Dallas Cowboys — called Juneteenth. Then on Sunday, there’s the City Men Cook 2020 Virtual Tribute to George Floyd and All Men Mentors on YouTube. The film screening and cooking tribute are free. The music festival and play tickets are $10 each at JimAustinOnline.com/ JuneteenthFestival. If you don’t know about Juneteenth, this is a very affordable way to educate yourself.

To help, Dog Haus Biergarten (4000 Bagpiper Way, Arlington, 682-276- 6686) is sponsoring a No Kid Hungry Food Drive from 11am to 6pm benefiting Arlington Charities, a nonprofit fighting hunger locally.

When you donate your bag of goodies, you will receive a free slider burger and other specials on a future visit.
Sunday her empire in Waco. For us, it is a street on the Near Southside. My love for TV shows like Fixer Upper with Joanna and husband Chip Gaines makes me think I’ll know what’s what when I check out the virtual Historic Fairmount Home Tour. Instead of viewing the Craftsman bungalows and Victorian homes of Waco through the boob tube, I’ll be seeing what Fairmount has to offer here from noon to 5:30pm online Saturday and Sunday. Tours are free, but donations are encouraged. Simply visit HistoricFairmount.com/Home-Tour.

Jubilee’s Triumphant Return
Like many theaters earlier this spring, Jubilee Theatre went on a three-month hiatus. Now they are back open just in time for their 39th anniversary.
Their spring season, Shades of Us premieres Fri at 8pm and runs thru July 19. On Thursdays thru Sundays, see Nate Jacobs’ How I Got Over, a gospel music celebration honoring Mahalia Jackson and other gospel greats and featuring songs like “Precious Lord, Take My Hand.”
Jackson was also known for her activism and was close to Martin Luther King Jr. “A voice like this comes not once in a century but once in a millennium,” Dr. King once said. She performed at his I Have a Dream speech and his funeral.
