SPARK! City Brings Art to Life

SPARK! Dallas presents SPARK! City, a first-of-its-kind immersive public art exhibition on view June 5–August 30, 2026, at SPARK! (1409 Botham Jean Blvd., Suite 004, Dallas, TX 75215).

Blurring the line between gallery, installation art and community storytelling, the exhibition transforms SPARK! into a series of immersive environments inspired by five distinct Dallas neighborhoods: Downtown/Uptown, Deep Ellum, Oak Cliff/Bishop Arts, Vickery Meadow and The Cedars.

Unlike a traditional gallery exhibition, SPARK! City invites visitors to step inside the artwork itself. Original installations created by students from Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, Emmett J. Conrad High School, and Dallas artist Erika Bauer explore the culture, history and creative spirit of each neighborhood through multiple artistic mediums.

The exhibition highlights the power of public art, place-based storytelling and youth creativity while offering visitors a unique lens through which to experience the city’s cultural landscape. Admission includes access to the exhibit, SPARK!’s Creative Corner and interactive sculpture spaces.

SPARK! City is open Saturdays from 10 a.m.–3 p.m., Sundays from 1–5 p.m., and select weekdays during FIFA Family Days. Admission is $15, with discounts available for teachers, seniors, military personnel, first responders and Museums for All participants. For adults, SPARK! After Dark offers special evening access on June 5, July 3 and August 7, featuring creative programming and social experiences designed for guests ages 21 and older.
