This Weekend: Good Deeds in West End, a Holiday Party in East Dallas and a Cocktail Crawl in Trinity Groves

Bubba T and Jeremy Scott, owner of Tutta’s Pizza, are hosting an event to raise resources for Genesis Women’s Shelter. They’ll have half-price drinks for women and live music, all with their usual pizzas, wings and sandwiches. So if you love those wings as much as we do, go get them on this night that helps benefit others.

This Thursday, Community is partnering with Dallasites101 and Dallas Pets Alive for an event to support the pups and try some specialty beer tappings.
