Curtain Call – Weekend Entertainment Roundup
by Kevin BuchananObviously, there’s the Lone Star International Film Festival, which my colleagues have been covering nicely thus far.
In addition, there’s going to be a big party Saturday evening at The Carillion Group’s latest historic building redevelopment, the Sawyer Grocery Buildings at 201 South Main (corner of South Main & East Daggett). The party’s a four-in-one affair: a grand opening for the Sawyer Grocery Buildings, an appreciation of Wachovia which financed the project, a going-away party for Daniel Carey of the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s Fort Worth office, and a tenant party for residents of all the properties restored by the Carillion Group (which would be the Markeen Apartments, the Leuda-May Apartments, the LaSalle Apartments, and now the Sawyer Grocery apartments).
Three musical acts will be performing – Tom Reynolds & the Jazz Explosion at 5:00 PM, Ginny Mac at 7:00 PM, and Banjo Bossa Nova & the Leuda May All-Stars at 9:00 PM. Rahr beer will be flowing and Brad Henserling of The Chat Room and (eventually) The Usual will be on hand mixing up the Prohibition-era cocktails he’ll be serving up when The Usual opens at last on Magnolia.
So, Saturday, November 15th, from 5:00 PM until “late,†stop by 201 South Main in the Near Southside for what’s sure to be a heck of a party.
