“To have creativity, you need two things: time & space... I think it's undeniable that both are harder to get now than decades ago.”

Recently, we discussed Austin’s transformation, the growing pains that came with it, & the communities & culture that still keep the city unique.

What does “Keep Austin Weird” mean today? 🤠

At our most recent Future Forum event, speakers discussed the city’s transformation, the challenges that came with growth, and the communities and culture that still make Austin feel unique.

"Why do I do this? Why wouldn't you if you were connected to a group like this."

Recently, we explored how the city’s identity has shifted over the years, what’s disappeared, and what still makes Austin unmistakably Austin.

Is Austin still “weird”? 🤔

Last week, we brought together voices to unpack how the city has evolved—and what’s been gained (and lost) along the way. From culture to community, the conversation reminded us what makes Austin feel like home.

Yes, you’re seeing that correctly... #LadyBird and her daughter, Lynda, at Eeyore’s Birthday Party in the 1970s.

As Austin grows, what happens to the spirit that made it weird? Join us April 29 for a panel on the city’s evolving identity.

Last week, @jbouie joined us to discuss voting rights nearly 60 years after the #VotingRightsAct.

“The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 had constitutional implications for the United States and really transformed the nature of this society.”

Great event tonight on the State of Voting Rights with Texas's own @SkyePerryman @jbouie and @cristinanextgen.

Nearly 60 years after #LBJ signed the #VotingRightsAct into law, its legacy—and its future—remains at the center of the national conversation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for a timely discussion on voting rights as America approaches its 250th anniversary.
