Arts District Mansion

In 1977, the Colonel's granddaughter, Helen Belo Morrison, agreed to sell the property to the Dallas Bar Association.
(221)

Located in the Dallas Arts District, the Arts District Mansion is the perfect venue to gather for luncheons, catered dinners, gorgeous weddings & dazzling receptions! She had been born in the house in 1902 and felt the Bar's plan to restore the home as the Dallas Legal Education Center was in accordance with family principles and feelings. The Dallas Bar Association connected the historic home and

the chapel with an expansive, glass-roofed atrium. In 2003, The Dallas Bar Association victoriously concluded its capital campaign which resulted in the addition of the exquisite Pavilion. Once again, the past was linked to the present and future through innovative design and distinctive architecture.

Please welcome the newest member of the management team at the Arts District Mansion, Jon Miller, as Executive Chef. Chef Jon's deep appreciation for continental cuisine was developed at a young age while growing up in Dallas, Texas, where he was exposed to a rich cooking culture alongside his parents. While grilling with his father or rolling fresh tortillas with his mother, his lifelong passion for cooking was ignited. He began cooking for fun at a very young age, always wanting to be in the kitchen.

After traveling the country and eating his way through 36 states in just over 3 years, Jon was able to savor a true taste of the nation. In 2008, Jon moved back to Dallas and shortly after he was reunited with a longtime friend, Tracy, who later became his wife. With Tracy and his family's support, Jon enrolled in formal culinary training at Le Cordon Bleu.

At age 20, Jon officially started his career with a small restaurant group, Neighborhood Services, where he was working and studying the nuances of both Classic French and New American cuisine. After 5 years under Chef Nick Badovinus, Jon continued his journey with Club Corp at the Stonebriar Country Club, and then on to The Clubs of Prestonwood in 2012 as Banquet/Private Events Chef. Jon quickly moved up within a year and became the Executive Sous Chef, and shortly after promoted to Executive Chef. Jon was with Club Corp for the 10 years and changed the perception of Country Club dining.

After a few years with Denton Country Club getting the F&B department back in line, Chef Jon decided he wanted to get back to his roots in Dallas. Jon is excited to bring his skills, creativity and energy to the team at The Arts District Mansion.

Welcome the Rich History of the Belo Mansion

Designed in the neo-classical revival style, the Belo Mansion was built in the late 1800’s by Colonel Alfred Horatio Belo, who founded the Dallas Morning News. The house was said to be constructed after the family home in Salem, North Carolina, and conceived as a tribute to Colonel Belo’s wife, Nettie. The contractor was Daniel Morgan, who in 1893, completed the Dallas County Courthouse now known as “Old Red”.

Construction on the home was completed in time for the wedding of the Belo’s son, Alfred Jr., to his bride, Helen Ponder. The Belo home on Ross and Pearl Streets became a city showplace as the family was active in civic and cultural affairs.

In 1926, the building was leased to George Loudermilk and Will Sparkman, where it operated as a funeral home for fifty years. In that year extensive remodeling occured and again in 1936, when an additional section was built onto the rear of the home as well as a chapel on the eastern portion of the property. One of the most infamous events held during that time was the 1934 funeral of Clyde Barrow, of the Bonnie and Clyde gang.

In 1977, the Colonel’s granddaughter, Helen Belo Morrison, agreed to sell the property to the Dallas Bar Association. She had been born in the house in 1902 and felt the Bar’s plan to restore the home as the Dallas Legal Education Center was in accordance with family principles and feelings. The Dallas Bar Association connected the historic home and the chapel with an expansive, glass-roofed atrium.
