Austin ISD Board of Trustees Meeting
Do you have a strange compulsion to “get involved”? Wanna get up close and personal with Austin ISD’s board of trustees as they consider increasing property taxes? Revising the district scorecard? Mastering Lone Star Governance? Alas, your opportunities are dwindling! Scurry down to take in one of the last meetings of the board before summer break and listen in rapt silence as the trustees pose question after question to the harried, conscientious, and acronymically gifted AISD administrators. Hours of compelling public discourse await! – Brant BingamonThu., May 16 -

Jon Dee Graham benefit w/ Jennifer Ellen Cook (host)
As songwriting powerhouse and True Believers veteran Jon Dee Graham recovers from spinal surgery, a group of pals will convene to lend a hand at two separate benefits. Hole in the Wall Saturday slate is jam packed with Graham’s friends and longtime collaborators – Alejandro Escovedo, James McMurtry, Jack Ingram, and many more – from the afternoon til bar close. And a free show at Meanwhile Brewing Sunday has a bill of eight “mini-acts” including Matt Giles and Andrew Duplantis pulling double duty from the day before. Music heals, but friends and donations don’t hurt either. – Abby JohnstonSun., May 12, 7:30pm. Free & open to public. -
