Sammons Center for the Arts

The Sammons Center for the Arts is a Dallas landmark,a nonprofit organization serving as the home for 14 local arts groups representing every performing arts discipline. Over 90 other arts organizations also regularly use the Center’s services and low-cost facilities for rehearsals, meetings, performances, auditions, and special events.

Each fall and spring, the Center presents two concert series, Sammons Jazz and Sammons Cabaret. Sammons Jazz is the longest-running regular jazz performance series in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that features local jazz artists. Sammons Cabaret showcases the top vocalists in North Texas performing the Great American Songbook and other standards in an elegant, intimate setting. The center also presents two Sammons Discovery concerts of unique music, musicians, and instruments each year. Sammons members get a $5 discount on tickets. Admission includes complimentary beverages, appetizers, and valet parking. These concerts often sell out, so purchasing tickets in advanced is advised.
