North Austin Creatives is proud to announce their inaugural Spring Extravaganza on March 26th, from 1 – 5pm at a big empty piece of commercial real estate at The Linc on 6406 N IH35 Austin Suite 2850A, TX 78752. The event will feature artisans, musicians, and food vendors highlighting local talent from the North Austin area. North Austin Creatives is a network of several hundred creatives and their supporters whose mission is to strengthen the arts in North Austin. North Austin Creatives include many dynamic fields such as visual art, live music, photography, and more. The group connects local businesses, community organizations, and schools with the arts for the economic and cultural gain of North Austin. Their monthly formal meetings and happy hours build relationships and help spread the word about North Austin’s emerging arts scene. North Austin Creatives is a fiscally sponsored project by Austin Creative Alliance under the umbrella of Love North Austin.
North Austin Creatives is a fiscally sponsored project of Austin Creative Alliance with a Community Initiatives grant of $3,000 from the City of Austin to put on this event, but more help from wonderful North Austin businesses and individuals are needed.
