The Elisabet Ney Museum is the historic home and studio of Elisabet Ney, a wildly iconoclastic German sculptor who moved to Austin in 1882. The museum enthusiastically celebrates her art, history, and legacy through exhibitions and events for the whole family. Her commissions include notable European luminaries and those who shaped early Texas history, including well-known Texans Stephen Austin and Sam Houston, whose portraits both stand in the national and state capitals today.

Maximize your fun by checking out the Disneyland of paintball at Texas Paintball, where you can play on 40 acres of land, ranging from modern Airball setups, and forested fields to fields with two-story buildings, towers, and other props. Which battlefield will you be brave enough to choose? Will it be the Sawmill, touted as one of the best scenario fields in the nation? Or Counter-Strike that is laid out perfectly for a thrilling game of Capture the Fort? How about Airball, primarily used for tournaments and other competitions where your heart rapidly pumps while hiding for cover behind bunkers inflated with air and returning fire on the opposing team? Whichever battlefield you choose, you will experience the massive adrenaline, the increasing camaraderie amongst friends, and the stress relief you need after a long day's work.

Encounter The Scottish Rite Children's Theater, known as Austin's oldest live theater venue, where you can experience high-quality productions that showcase the traditional theater lifestyle, period costumes, and hand-painted backdrops that were used during the late 1800s. The original plays are from well-known children's fairy tales with a modern twist, which is written to be interactive with the children in the audience and include positive life lessons. Throughout each play, children are encouraged to help the hero defeat the villain and participate in the fun.
