About Garland, Texas

Garland is a city in Dallas County, Texas, with portions extending into Collin and Rockwall counties. Immigrants began arriving in the Peters colony area around 1850, but a community was not created until 1874. A rivalry between the two towns ensued as the area began to grow around the Santa Fe Railroad depot. The Granville Arts Center is a complex owned and operated by the city. Included within the complex are two proscenium theatres which seat 720 and 200, respectively. Also included as part of the complex is the Plaza Theatre, which has seating for 350. (Wikipedia)
