Dada Dallas

Club Dada stands out with its bright, neon-trimmed patio and the worn brick facade that stretches along Elm Street. Since opening in nineteen eighty-six, it has operated as a bedrock for local and touring musicians. When the neighborhood was quiet and largely abandoned, the original owners turned this space into a center for the experimental arts scene. They hosted everyone from underground jazz performers to punk bands, keeping the doors open through decades of rapid changes in the city.
