Come meet the next generation of innovators and environmentalists at our 7th Annual Student Innovation Showcase at Austin City Hall.

12 student teams from across Central Texas will present their innovative, Eco-Audit Grant funded projects in a science-fair style format. Prepare to be wowed by elementary, middle, and high school students who have developed a deep understanding of complex sustainability challenges ranging from water conservation to local food production to waste management strategies.

Through EcoRise’s Eco-Audit Grant program, these students identified specific sustainability challenges on their campuses and designed innovative solutions to tackle them. A wide range of projects were submitted and funded from across Central Texas this year. Select teams will be at Austin City Hall on May 11th to showcase their inspiring work.

​How ​do I get to City Hall? ​Carpooling, biking, and public transportation are ​strongly ​encouraged! The B-cycle bikeshare station is next to City Hall on Lavaca Street. Bike racks are available in front of building. ​You can ​find the best public transit route on ​​CapMetro.org. Free parking is available in the City Hall Parking Garage (entrance on Guadalupe Street). Don’t forget to bring your parking ticket to the event to be validated.

ps. Are you a parent or teacher? Student set-up begins at 4:30p.

Thank you to City of Austin Office of Sustainability for co-hosting this event with us!
