Things To Do In Dallas Tonight: July 6

Is anyone else feeling the post-holiday lull here? Just me? Wonderful, moving right along.

I swear, I’m not just talking about this because I’m lazy and I could potentially walk to this place from my apartment. Sangria Tapas y Bar is celebrating the first day of the festival of San Fermín (you know, the thing with all the bulls that happens in The Sun Also Rises) with fifty cent sangria all evening long. Really. I’m excited, because I have dragged almost everyone I know, including my cousin who normally resides in San Antonio, to a somewhat awful restaurant in New York called Empanada Mama just for their sangria. I love this stuff. And it’s fifty cents. The bar’s regular flamenco guitarist Josh Goode will perform, and if we’re all lucky someone will think to bring castanets.

Meanwhile in Oak Cliff, there’s Oil and Cotton’s weekly Wednesday drawing class for us adults whose stick figures need serious help. Dallas artist Rebecca Carter, who exhibits frequently at 500x Gallery, is teaching the class, and all you have to do is choose an object you’d like to work with and drop in. I’m also going to go ahead and suggest that a trip to Lockhart Smokehouse is in order, if you haven’t made it that way already. Daniel Vaughn reviewed the Bishop Arts barbecue joint for our June issue, but I say, go for the Kreuz sausage.

For more things to do tonight, go here.
