Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has"

INTRODUCTION

Government is a slow and tedious process. While it often includes citizen and neighborhood involvement, non-governmental, private organizations have created movements and interesting groups which can create positive change in our cities and towns.

I am fascinated by the way groups are created and how they influence public decision making. This blog merely recognizes them and forwards the description of these groups from their own websites.

Keep Austin Weird Festival

Location: Austin, TX

Website: www.keepaustinweird.com

We all know there is NO city better than Austin. Therefore, this festival's philosophy is go big or go home.

What does this mean? This means Keep Austin Weird is one blowout party full of music, family activities and local vendors eager to reflect the creative nature of Austin.

Think of this festival as the ultimate toast to Austin, a toast to hospitality, fun and a sense of community.

No need to hide your kids or hide your wives (or husbands) as there are plenty of fun shenanigans for any Austinite in attendance.
