The Ethics Review Commission will host a forum for candidates for Austin Mayor and City Council Places 1, 2, 5 and 6 on Thursday, April 16, 2009, from 6 to 9 p.m.
There have been several high profile forums, but expect all candidates to be in attendance here.
DANA board member Greg Anderson – “I think out of all the candidates running, Chris best understands the problems which we as a society are facing. Chris understands the need for sustainable communities: walkable, dense and vibrant places where there are options other than driving.”
Chris Riley continues to pick up a breadth of community support: Burnt Orange Report, Downtown Austin Neighborhood Association, and NOKOA The Observer have all recently announced their support of Chris. These are in addition to being endorsed by the majority of Democratic clubs, local public safety unions, as well as numerous other civic organizations and community groups.
Did anyone else see this last night? Don’t know who Austin Bike Zoo put it together, but it’s pretty cool!
Kudos to Alex (TXAlex) over at the skyscraperpage forums for this work. Photo was taken on Easter Sunday.
The detail is uncanny. The original version is pretty big, so click the image to get to flickr, then click on the image again to get the full size.
Hideout Theater Offers Improv Classes (link). You can register for a six week workshop beginning May 11th. Class is conveniently scheduled in the evenings.
We’ve seen several shows at the Hideout. It’s easy to walk to and you can drink beer during the show. Perfect, right? If you want to see what improv is all about, then checkout Double Barrel this Friday @ 8pm.
