Grand Opening was a Grand Success!

For those that were able to make it, thank you! For those that couldn’t make it, it’s okay. We’re still open.

IMG_0667 Saturday was a long, eventful, and satisfying day filled with friends and fun. When it was all over with, we went home and passed out early. I would like to start by thanking everyone who helped entertain. And yes, you delivered. Above and beyond. Thank you to Alex Martinez for signing books for us and yes, we found Jaye Wells. She is okay. There was a conflict that arose and we will have her in at a later date.

One of the benefits from this weekend was the chance to meet new people and make new business connections. With these new connections come opportunities for new games, events, a possible lecture series, and so much more. So join our mailing list to stay on top of the news.

Thank you to all of these folks!

A. Lee Martinez

Tom Branch

Cole Houston and the Jedi Cole Universe

Dave Ferguson - The Great Debate

Daniel Calhoun – Captain AmeriDad

And last, but not least in any way, my staff; Thomas Chick and Chelsie Smith!

If you were able to attend and have photos or video, please forward it to us so we can share!

Bringing Magic to A Galaxy Called Dallas

As we bring in more and more product and we get ready for our grand opening, we also want to start building our community. That community includes folks who geek out on Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, or Red Dwarf and even fans of Magic, Pokemon, Yugi-oh, RPGs and board games. The best way to support these communities is to have nights where we play the games and talk about the franchises; you know, the things we’re passionate about.Sarkhan_the_Dragonspeaker_PW_2560x1600_Wallpaper

Here at Galaxy Dallas, we aren’t just passionate about the above. We’re crazy about you, too! So, we are now putting together a calendar of gaming that will try to satisfy the major groups of gamers. We know you’re out there and we’d love to meet you and have you play with us.

With us being closed Sunday and Monday (Hey, we need a break, too!) it leaves fewer days to schedule, but I think what we have scheduled will work out. In addition to game nights, we will also be hosting a night open to discussions where we discuss anything and everything. This will be on Tuesday nights and the topics will change from week to week. One week we might discuss comics, the next we might have an artist in to give a how-to. It will be different. Wednesday nights will be role-playing nights. We picked this night for when we get set up for D&D Encounters, but we will also host other RPGs. Thursday will be Pokemon and Yugi-oh nights with Friday night going to Magic and the inevitable set up of Friday Night Magic through Wizards of the Coast. And last but not least, Saturday is a free-for-all with the tables open for anything all day long.

This schedule may change, but you will be given ample notice. We may have to cancel a night of gaming to make way for another event. Again, we’ll give you a heads up. We have five tables, four that can be reserved, but one will always be left open to casual play. The best way to stay in touch is to follow us on Facebook and make sure that you have us in your notifications. Also, you can join our email list. That is in the box to your right or you can find the tab on our Facebook page. If you need any help at all, don’t hesitate to write us at agalaxycalleddallas@gmail.com.
