Houston, Texas. Project Row Houses (PRH) is excited to announce the highly anticipated grand reopening of the Eldorado Ballroom on Thursday, March 30, 2023, from 6 pm to 9:30 pm. This historic venue holds significant cultural value and preserving its rich history is an important part of Project Row Houses’ commitment to the community.
Project Row Houses Executive Director Eureka Gilkey was thrilled to see the finishing touches being put on the ballroom as she toured the space with PRH staff. “Third Ward deserves this revival! I am excited for the community to see what has come to fruition, as we work to preserve and protect historic black spaces, black culture and history.”
Invited guests will step back in time to the 1940s and relive the glamour and elegance of Third Ward’s heyday as PRH regifts this historic gem back to the community. Encouraged to dust off their dancing shoes and come dressed to impress, attendees are in for an evening of live music and performances, glitzy catering, and glamorous cocktails.
Gilkey is thankful for the supporters of this historic venue who played key roles in our revitalization efforts. Together, we are honoring the Dupree legacy and restoring the heart and soul of Third Ward.
