How many arts and entertainment businesses are listed across the Dallas metro?
One right now, in Dallas. The list grows as businesses are recommended, checked and added.
What makes a business inclusive on Inclusivity.org?
Every listing shows why it is here, with a source you can check: the owner's own statement, a public listing such as a chamber directory, or a recognized certification. Some are owned by the communities they serve and some are allies who welcome everyone. We never list someone's identity without a source.
How do I find out what is on this week?
Theaters, galleries and venues post their own calendars, and schedules follow seasons and festivals rather than a standard week. Check before you plan a night around one.
Are there accessible and sensory-friendly performances?
Many venues offer captioned, audio-described or relaxed performances on set dates. Ask the box office about seating, captions and quiet spaces when you book.
Is it free to be listed?
Yes. A basic listing is free, and owners can claim and update theirs at any time. Featured and Enhanced listings get more room on the page, and being listed never depends on them.
How do I suggest an arts or entertainment business that is missing?
Use Recommend a business at the bottom of this page. We research every suggestion, and nothing goes live until it has been checked.
