Our Future 35 Open House

Join us on Saturday, September 28th from 10:00am until 2:00pm at Canopy Projects Gallery: 916 Springdale Rd. Building 2 #101

Our Future 35 will be showcasing revised concept sketches shaped by the feedback received by Austin residents who completed our survey over the summer. 

You'll have the opportunity to see how we've transformed your public input into new concepts. 

Our Future 35 is a community-centered initiative to create public spaces along the I-35 corridor in Central Austin and connect East and West Austin.

Because the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT)’s I-35 Capital Express Central project will lower the highway’s main lanes between Lady Bird Lake and Airport Boulevard, the City of Austin has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to construct “caps” and “stitches” over the highway, reconnecting the two sides of I-35 and creating new public space.  

Combined, these opportunities could create up to 30 acres of new public space in the middle of Central Austin.

Transmissions: Countdown to Eclipse at Canopy

Transmissions is the thematic provocation for the 2024 ecoartspace annual exhibition to be presented in person as a day-long pop-up event in Austin, Texas, and as an online gallery + printed Zines. With the upcoming eclipse happening across the United States on Monday, April 8, we will focus on artistic expressions illuminating conceptual and physical manifestations inspired by this powerful natural phenomenon—including current dialogue around upfitting the energy grid and energy equity—a somatic point of departure not to occur again in the Northern Hemisphere until 2044. The pop-up will include interactive guided meditations, eclipse tarot readings, art films featured in the Cosmos Cinema, a Solarities play and book signing, panel discussion, unique eclipse posters for sale, and moon/sun libations.
