The 27th Annual Dallas Mayors Back To School Fair, Powered By The Junior League of Dallas, Will Take Place Friday, August 4th At Fair Park

Mayor Eric L. Johnson and Dallas Independent School District (Dallas ISD) are hosting the 27th Annual Dallas Mayor’s Back to School Fair, powered by the Junior League of Dallas, Friday, August 4, 2023, at Fair Park inside the Automobile Building and Centennial Hall. The fair, hosted by Mayor Johnson, is a collaborative event between the City of Dallas, Dallas Independent School District (Dallas ISD), nonprofits, corporations, and community volunteers. Each year, it serves more than 10,000 economically disadvantaged students in grade levels pre-K to 12 and their families.

For 27 years, the fair has served as a one-stop shop for school supplies, valuable services, and community resources. Pre-registered Dallas students and their families will receive school supplies at the fair and access to immunizations, dental screenings, vision exams, and other health and social services provided by more than 100 vendors. This year, the Junior League of Dallas will power the event and recruit, train, and support more than 500 event volunteers.
