THE LYRIC DREW US IN
We love the mural on the front of the Lyric of the historical athletes, but we crossed the street to look in the window because of the striking sculptural silver mural on the back wall created by Ruben Manzano. With the soaring ceiling, beautiful artwork and mirrors, it almost had the feel of a cathedral. We decided it would make a great multipurpose space for us, with a coffee and wine bar at the front, an event venue in the center, and Imaginary Lines, our photo and digital imaging business, upstairs on the mezzanine. We have had the opportunity to host several amazing events thanks to the kind people of Terrell and with the fantastic support from the City of Terrell. Imaginary Lines has moved in and the Coffee Bar should open soon. We’ll keep you posted!
