Central Arts Hurst — Local services in Hurst

TO ALL LADIES (fem presenting folks): PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE- i would absolutely NOT recommend you to to this venue. i had an unfortunate experience with a male STAFF member that made me feel unsafe in the locked bathroom. 3 minutes into me being in the restroom, i hear a loud bang on the door. “WHO’S IN HERE!?” a very aggressive voice shouted outside the door. i said “one moment”, and i said so fairly loudly. the door immediately unlocks. nobody enters, but in that moment i was not decent, and afraid for my safety. i give this man (Sedrick is his name) the benefit of the doubt, as it was very loud inside; DJ’s were playing. After this incident I asked a staff member: “are you the one who unlocked the bathroom?”. he avoided eye contact with me and said “I guess yeah”. i asked him.. “so yes?” he told me yes and claimed he did not hear me. fair enough. but i told him to listen more carefully and that it made me uncomfortable. he apologized. i contacted the individual who runs this venue and he assured me that this employee was “like a son and i’m 100% sure” that his intentions are fine. this manager heard me out and i appreciated that. he said he would have a talk with his employee. he let me know his employee was hard of hearing. that’s a wonderful explanation for the incident. i was there for quite a long time and he NEVER explained that to me. by the end of the conversation, it was clear this employee isn’t at much risk of leaving the establishment. IF SEDRICK STILL WORKS HERE DO NOT GO. cherry on top: he did the SAME THING in one night to my friend! however this time, he didn’t even do much as knock before unlocking the door. once again, did not enter, but made my friend uncomfortable. please do something about sedrick. it doesn’t matter what his intentions were. this is wildly...

The Artcade event on Tuesdays is a blast! Setups for new games and old on arcade cabinets, and the staff are really knowledge about the hardware so if you have your own then feel free to ask them questions!

Did I mention they are a non-profit? Really good guys at this spot doing all kinds of outreach in the community! Just wait for...

Great local non-profit that's responsible for all sorts of classes/programs for the community's children. Also some fun cultural events at night! A real gem for DFW.

Johnny Weng is an awesome coordinator and an anchor there. Thanks...
