It's hard to believe prom season is almost here! As an annual tradition, Dallas Public Library will serve as host for the Fairy Tale Closet. 

For the sixth year in a row, high school students will be able to find dresses, suits, and other formal wear for the dance. Hundreds of gowns (in various sizes and styles), suits, jackets, shoes, and accessories will be available starting this Saturday. The Fairy Tale Closet is open to girls, boys, and non-binary students. 

The Fairy Tale Closet will be open five times at the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library at 1515 Young St, Dallas, TX 75201.
