Public Citizen Texas’ 25th Anniversary

November 16 @ 7:48 am

Basic Info

Date:
November 16, 2024
Time:
7:48 am

Come on out to the Barr Mansion in Austin, TX on November 6th to celebrate Public Citizen Texas’ 25th anniversary. David (DAH-VEED) Garza will play a benefit show starting at 9 pm, and fancy folks are welcome to a special reception, dinner, and awards ceremony starting at 6. Tickets can be purchased online at http://www.citizen.org/TXSRVP

If you haven’t been to Barr Mansion before, David be playing in the greenhouse — a beautiful old building with a big wooden stage, killer acoustics, and a nice intimate setting with plenty of room for groovin’ and shakin’.

So save the date for November 6th! The show will start around 9, and tickets are just $19.84 in advance (since Public Citizen was founded in 1984, natch) or $25 at the door. We’ll have a bar set up for the beer of your choice and free (organic!) appetizers to share.

If you’re feeling fancy, you’re also welcome to the dinner that we’ll hold before hand from 6-9. That will start out with a brief schmoozefest and cocktail hour, and then we’ll move in for dinner, speeches, and an awards ceremony for recipients of our Texas Outstanding Public Servant (TOPS) awards. Local dignitary and America’s #1 populist Jim Hightower will emcee, and you’ll also have a chance to meet our new Public Citizen president Rob Weissman. Dinner tickets are $75 per person or $125 for a couple and can be purchased at www.citizen.org/TXRSVP (tickets to David are included in that, you won’t have to buy an extra).
