THE INSTITUTE 100

The Institute 100 is a separately-funded support group for the Dallas Institute.  Its goal: to present a stimulating program of events that will expand the Institute’s audience, increase its support, and involve new leaders. Thought-provoking presentations for small groups are held in unique settings.  Because space at these events is limited, memberships are available on a first-come first-served basis.  Double memberships at $600 and single memberships at $350. Call Priscilla Owens at 214 981-8820 for details.

 

THE FORUM

Membership in The Forum is automatic for all Institute members at the $500 level or above.  Events with special guest speakers are planned semi-annually, on an at-cost basis.  Call Priscilla Owens at 214 981-8820 for more information.
