Black History Month Kick-Off Block Party

What better way to celebrate Black History Month than with a walk through the George Washington Carver Museum? The East Austin cultural center houses four permanent Black history exhibits, which present artifacts from prominent local families, the Jim Crow-era L.C. Anderson High School, and Black scientists and inventors, as well as a sculpture gallery full of Juneteenth freedom figureheads. Not purely educational, the free event offers a vendor market and “interactive arts and crafts programming,” all soundtracked by a vinyl DJ. – Carys Anderson
