  Free Day

  Art! Oh, I love it. But sadly, when I open my pockets, moths fly out. Good news for me and all my broke friends: Every Tuesday, the Blanton opens its doors to all visitors free of charge. Why, unburdened by the weight of an empty wallet, Austinites can mull the strange world of contemporary womanhood in “Unbreakable: Feminist Visions from the Gilberto Cárdenas and Dolores Garcia Collection.” Or walk beneath the silver and mesh sculptures of Marie Watt’s “Sky Dances Light.” Or explore the past through its artistic pieces in “The Floating World: Masterpieces of Edo Japan.” Or enjoy any of the many, MANY other exhibitions available on this day: all for free. – James Scott

  Jen Garrido: Shapes That Listen

  As a glasses-wearer, my vision unobstructed by assistive frames reveals a world of shapes – formless, edgeless, but colorful wonders nonetheless. Take a glance at Jen Garrido’s work, and you’ll feel as though your glasses have fallen away, too. The artist’s process, as she puts it, is “a delicate balance of choice and process.” She gravitates toward shapes that “tangle, overlap, sit, lean and lay” as a vessel for personal narratives and internal dialogues. While first looks may reveal only color and texture, Garrido’s paintings invite projection – so project your meanings any Tuesday-Sunday before the show’s April 28 end date. – James Scott

  Keep Austin Beautiful Day

  Is Austin beautiful? The near-million of us who call it home certainly think so. Let’s keep it that way! Keep Austin Beautiful, with a vision “for Austin to be the cleanest, most beautiful community,” focuses its efforts on reducing waste and keeping green spaces and waterways clear and clean. So every year during Earth Month, KAB mobilizes thousands of volunteers to remove litter from dozens of shared spaces spanning every City Council district. It couldn’t be easier to sign up for a shift – just hop on the web and find a place or project near and dear to your heart, then join like-minded neighbors for a morning of service to Mother Earth. – Kat McNevins
