Scene Around Town: Christ's Family Clinic and the Dallas Arboretum

As Society Editor for the Katy Trail Weekly I oversee the publication's Scene Around Town feature, which shines a spotlight on nonprofit and community events each week. In this week’s April 26 issue, I was pleased to share highlights from the Art Of Caring For Others Dinner & Art Auction. This recent event showcased the beauty of local artists, honored Honorary Chairs, Kenneth and Kamela Aboussie, and illuminated the profound impact of supporting Christ's Family Clinic, a primary healthcare facility in Dallas. Also featured the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden who recently held its seventh annual Food and Wine Festival with nearly 1,500 guests in attendance. About 45 chefs served their specialty dishes such as Japanese sushi, Mexican elote and mini fish tacos, Thai fried rice, mouthwatering desserts and more.

Have an event you’d like to submit for editorial consideration? Here’s what you need to email me:

  • Send 4-8 images for consideration

  • No repeats (meaning the same person can’t be in multiple shots)

  • You must ID the people in each photo (left to right)

  • Tell me the name of the event, the location of where it was held, and provide a brief description of the event

  • Please send one event submission per email with the name of the event in the Subject line
