The Dallas Art Book Fair, running through March 19th, is actually a lead-in to the main event on March 21st and 22nd. That's when the Dallas Contemporary will host the main two-day fair, featuring regional, national, and international artists. This year's fair includes a member's only preview night and reception on Friday, March 20th. The Dallas Observer voted it "Best Market," and admission is free. The Dirk Nowitzki Foundation and the City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture are supporting the event. Dallas Contemporary will also present exhibitions by artists Michael Corris, Laray Polk, and Collective Riso Rama.
