   Parking will be mostly underground and , for a price , plentiful. For those willing to walk , I will be one of the willing, the Dart train stops at Pearl. This is just a few blocks south of the Arts District. The Mc Kinney Ave Trolley stops at St Paul and Ross , next to the DMA and Stephen Pyles, and is also just a few blocks. Of course those of you that live in Uptown and Downtown now is the time to make Dallas a Walking Neighborhood.
 
 Enjoy The Arts !
