It’s that time of year again and, this time, the Maudie’s Moonlight Margarita Run is kicking the tires at a brand new location.
If you love running and margaritas, you’re going to want to hunker down at the former Seaholm Power Plant beginning at 8 p.m. to get your fill of either one, all while Jim Spencer hosts the fun.
... All proceeds benefit The Trail Foundation, the nonprofit organization that protects and enhances the Ann and Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail at Lady Bird Lake.

Austin’s newest piece of public art, called “Golden Afternoon,” is an “Alice in Wonderland”-themed ode to Texas wildflowers created by Urban Matter Inc. To celebrate its recent installation in the Seaholm parking garage, the city’s Art in Public Places program will be holding a dedication ceremony at Seaholm Plaza on Friday, April 22, from 6 to 8 p.m. Urban Matter artists Rick Lin and Shagun Singh will be in attendance to discuss the artwork, Mad Hatter snacks and beverages will be served, and wildflower seed packets will be given away for free. The Harry Ransom Center will be on hand with “activity books” befitting the theme, and the Austin Public Library’s mobile library will be there as well.

On Friday, April 22, 2016, the public is invited to discover the newest addition to the City of Austin’s public art collection with a slightly mad Tea Party, hosted by Austin Art in Public Places! , Golden Afternoon, a responsive art installation, was recently installed in the Seaholm neighborhood.
Inspired by Texas wildflowers and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Golden Afternoon is a responsive public art installation in the parking structure of the Seaholm Redevelopment Project. The installation mimics a hanging garden that has overgrown from the flower beds on the ground level, down the open stairwell, and making its way into the parking lot. Reminiscent of a trip down the rabbit hole from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the artwork experience is heightened by lighting which responds to people moving up and down the stairs.
