THE SPIRIT OF DALLAS
100 YEARS IN THE MAKING

ON LIMITED EDITION VINYL FROM DEEP ELLUM 100

Keep Deep Ellum Gritty

Deep Ellum 100 exists to keep the heart of this neighborhood alive by supporting the artists, musicians, service workers, and small businesses that give it life.Together, we’ve raised over $60,000, providing 30 grants to those most affected by economic hardship. Our mission is to ensure the people who define Deep Ellum’s culture not only recover but thrive.

Deep Ellum’s legacy runs deep. Founded in the late 1800s by freed slaves, European, and Jewish merchants, it became the first 'free zone' where people of all backgrounds gathered for commerce and entertainment. Today, with over 450 small businesses, the neighborhood is known nationally for its rich history, art, and live music—a cultural hub like no other.

Through grassroots efforts, we support the creatives and businesses that make Deep Ellum a beacon of culture in Dallas. We’re here to make sure the artists keep creating, musicians keep playing, and small businesses keep their doors open. In a community built on resilience and creativity, our mission is to honor that spirit and invest in the people who keep it alive, no matter the challenges.
