Klyde Warren Park's Summer Movie Series continues this evening with Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, the third installment of the popular film franchise.

There will be food trucks on site; showtime is 8:30 p.m. The park is about an 8-minute walk from St. Paul Station.

Building a Better Experience for You! DART is making major improvements. To create a smoother ride through downtown Dallas and reduce service interruptions, track improvements are under way and will continue until September. During that time, DART Rail in Downtown Dallas will be discontinued each weekend between Pearl/Arts District and West End stations. Bus bridges will be in operation. DART.org/plus
