    Central Texas Juneteenth

    Although the Emancipation Proclamation was issued by Abraham Lincoln on the first day of 1863, the news didn’t reach Texas until two and a half years later, when Union troops arrived in Galveston to let enslaved people know they were free. Nonprofit Greater East Austin Youth Association commemorates the occasion each year with a parade weaving through the Eastside and culminating in a family-friendly festival in Rosewood Neighborhood Park offering live music, vendors, children’s activities, food, and lots of fun.

    Community Hours at Thinkery

    Children’s growing minds and bodies are always looking for something to do, and it’s costly keeping them occupied. So bring them to Thinkery children’s museum, which “strives to be an inclusive, friendly, inspiring space to learn for our entire community, regardless of income, mental/physical abilities, ethnicity, nationality, race, sexual orientation, gender expression/identity or family status.” From 3 to 7pm Tuesdays, kiddos can visit all the STEAM activities and exhibits like Train Town, the Spark Shop, the Story Nook, and the Move! Studio to have tons of fun while learning and wearing themselves out before bedtime. And it’s all free! Just don’t let them start looking at the not-free items at Toy Joy. – Kat McNevins
