Try to catch Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis or
Dale Watson. They have
dance lessons too—
you’ll want them. Good
chicken fried steak too.

Fusebox
Ron Berry is the ED
of this curated art performance festival in
the spring. I highly
recommend buying a
pass to attend as many
performances as you
can—it’s an international lineup. He always
has very strong group
participation events, so
participate!

Fischer Dance Hall
Go out to see one of
Austin’s oldest dance
halls. The venue is gorgeous, and if you call
ahead you can bowl in
their nine-pin bowling
alley. And it’s a great
Hill Country drive
getting there.

East Austin Studio Tour  
A locally organized tour
in November. East Austin has a preponderance
of artisans, artists and
people living an artistic

life. Try to attend the
Danger Derby at Blue
Genie as part of the
tour. (I’m not just saying
this because I won one
year.) Watch the clips on
YouTube—it’s quite an
expression of “creative
aggression.”

Talk to anyone and
everyone. People are
sincerely nice here and
thrilled to give you
advice on the coolest of
the cool no matter what
you have in mind.
