The Contemporary Austin aims to create a cultural center of gravity in Austin for a variety of experiences linked to contemporary art. They offer many engaging opportunities for artists, enjoyable hands-on programs for families, and many exhibitions and event opportunities.
The Cathedral of Junk is in the backyard of the artist who created it as a living sculpture, meaning it is always in flux as its creator, owner, and curator, Vince Hanneman, also known as The Junk King continues adding to it. The building is like a Cathedral that has a hollow framework of improvised trusses and wires that are packed with lawn mower wheels, car bumpers, kitchen utensils, ladders, cables, bottles, circuit boards, bicycle parts, brick-a-brack, and a lot of stuff that is unidentifiable.
Keep the laughs going at Esther's Follies, a comical tour de force, where they showcase variety shows, musical comedies, and magical performances that encompass political satire, innuendos, and vaudeville showmanship. Enjoy the must-see improvisational performances filled with singers, poets, dancers, mimes, musicians, and comics, where everyone laughs under one roof.
