Happy 4th of July weekend! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 While Fair Park 4th is canceled, we will be open on July 4 from 7a until 9p. Please enter through Gate 5. Now for this week’s #FunFactFriday, we present Federal Hall (built-in 1936). Here are some fun facts about this room: 🔴⚪️🔵 Federal Hall served as a formal reception room during the Texas Centennial, entertaining celebrities and distinguished guests, who almost certainly included President and Mrs. Roosevelt. 🔴⚪️🔵 Notice something different about the flag? Since the room was constructed in 1936, the flag only has 48 stars (Alaska and Hawaii were not states yet). 🔴⚪️🔵 This room was restored in 1970 to look like it did in 1936, including the proper colors, fabrics, and surfaces. 🔴⚪️🔵 Most of the offices constructed around Federal Hall are connected so that members of the cabinet would be able to move around the building without interacting with the general public at the Centennial. These offices now serve as the admin offices for Fair Park First and Spectra at #myFairPark. 📸 by Carol Highsmith

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and in the interest of public safety, Fair Park First and Spectra have made the difficult decision to cancel our 2020 Fair Park Fourth event, originally scheduled for Saturday, July 4. We’d like to thank Oncor, Friends of Fair Park and our other partners for their past support. We look forward to Fair Park Fourth in 2021.

Today’s #FunFactFriday Fair Park Feature: Fecundity by Carlo Ciampaglia and Hector Serbaroli. Have you seen this mural while strolling through #myFairPark? Here’s some background info⬇️ 🎨🎨🎨🎨 Ciampaglia, a world-renown, Italian-born artist was asked by a former classmate of his, George Dahl, to undertake the Centennial Mural Commission at Fair Park in 1936. This mural depicting the Roman Goddess of the Harvest is located at the entry of the Food and Fiber Pavilion. Ciampaglia designed the mural, but it was actually adapted and painted by Serbaroli. 🎨🎨🎨🎨 At some point during its history, it was covered under layers of paint. However, the mural was rediscovered in 1999 and restored in 2007. 🎨🎨🎨🎨 📷 by Carol Highsmith. Credit to the City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture Public Art for the background information*
