Austin Emerging Arts Leaders Summer Networking Mixer

Join Austin Emerging Arts Leaders for an evening of creativity, conversation, and community at ZACH Theatre.

Whether you're an artist, musician, actor, filmmaker, photographer, writer, arts administrator, educator, or simply someone who believes in the power of the arts, we'd love for you to join us.

Austin's creative community thrives because of the people who make it. This mixer is an opportunity to meet fellow creatives, reconnect with familiar faces, build new relationships, and discover collaboration opportunities in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Throughout the evening, you'll have the chance to connect with members of the Austin Emerging Arts Leaders Board, learn more about EAL's mentorship and community programs, and spend time with artists and arts professionals from across Central Texas.

Whether you're looking to find your next collaborator, expand your network, or simply enjoy an evening surrounded by creative people, this event is for you.
