Dallas City Hall plaza will go wild on Saturday

A story today talks about longstanding and largely unsuccessful efforts to make the plaza outside Dallas City Hall a fun, vibrant gathering place.

To try to make it so, an event Wednesday will feature toy boats in the fountain and possibly even — brace yourself — wading.

But the real craziness comes Saturday afternoon. That’s when I will emcee a read-in hosted by Friends of the Dallas Public Library.

The event is expected to draw people who are completely wild (over libraries and reading).
