Did You Know????

Southside Preservation Hall welcomes THOUSANDS of people each year to its facility, where they participate in events such as Buddy's Big Band on the first Friday night of the month (every month), Swing dance lessons every Tuesday night, the annual Plant Sale in April, and weddings every week, just to name a few.
Wedding at Rose Chapel

By the numbers:

• The average attendance for Buddy's Big Band is 200 at each performance or 2400 people per year!

• We welcome over 4800 Swing Dancers for Tuesday night lessons each year.

• There were well over 100 weddings and other events at the Hall in 2005!

• Approximately 1,000 people attended the Annual Plant Sale in 2006!

• We even had two memorial services in our chapel to date—a new idea that can grow.

We appreciate your support! However, we ask for your continued and additional support in helping us achieve our mission of preservation. As some may know, we are restoring the little cottage across the street from the Hall both to beautify the view from our own location and to sell it and invest the proceeds in further restoration of the Hall. We are also making plans to start replacing missing wood windows on the 1922-era three story addition to our building.

Please help us by making a donation to the Hall. We are a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization and all donations are tax-deductible. To make a donation, please fill out this form, and mail the form and your check to 1519 Lipscomb Street, Fort Worth, TX 76104.
