It’s fall in Texas, which only means one thing — high school football. It’s pretty much a religion, especially in small towns, but that doesn’t mean Austin isn’t also football crazy. A Friday night at House Park is pretty special. And for all of the football lovers in Austin, the Bob Bullock Museum is offering

After my visit to the CowParade I was feeling inspired by all the talent that was on display, so I thought I would blog on free Thursday at the Blanton Museum of Art. The museum is packed with fun events throughout the day, starting with “New Ways of Seeing Texture.” Families can discover art through

Austin has so many art galleries it’s tough to know where to start. I really like ArtHouse. It’s in a great location and the rooftop is a true winner. I was never very artistic, but my best friend was truly gifted, so supporting and being inspired by today’s youth just spoke to me personally. This

There’s nothing like finishing a short week with a little live music, especially when it’s free. This popular summer concert series is now in its eighth year, and it’s back for more fun under the star at the Bob Bullock Museum. They’ll have La Sombra tequila-infused tacos, dessert and Honest Tea, all compliments of the

The Texas Music Museum is a great, free way to cool down during this brutal summer. They currently have an exhibit, “Texas First, Texas Best,” which features groundbreaking musicians on the Texas music scene.

You guys know how I love anything space-related, and with the end of the shuttle era, I thought this was a really cool opportunity.

Today’s movie in the park has been cancelled due to the language in the film. But I was enjoying the idea of a free flick, so I thought I would stick with the movie theme.   Tonight is the last of the Mexican Cinema Series at the Texas History Museum. The movies are in Spanish

Enjoying sunset at the Bob Bullock Museum with some free music is the perfect way to wind down a weekend. Nothing beats a few drinks and live music under the summer sun. Tonight RoTel and the Hot Tomatoes and Beto y los Fairlanes will be playing. Bringing a camping chair for seating would be a good idea. Coolers

Thursday is becoming a day devoted to the arts in Austin. Between I Art Congress and this event, it’s getting pretty easy to find something art-related to enjoy every week. The Blanton Museum of Art is a massive place on the University of Texas campus. In fact, it’s one of the largest university art museums

I needed a break from concerts today and this was the perfect alternative. It’s also in my neck of the woods, which is good. An afternoon art walk sounds oddly appealing, and it’s all about showcasing local artists and local businesses. Each location along the art walk will have different artists. They’ll have music, food,
