Join The Trail Conservancy for a Meet the Artist event for the Eastside Play Area project! Talk with the project’s artist, Lys Santamaria and landscape architect, Rialto Studio. Together, we’ll explore how community stories and creativity can shape the art that makes our park a true reflection of home.

Get to Know the Artist: Lys Santamaria
Selected from an open call in July, Lys is a Colombian-born, Austin-based artist whose work in glass beads and tile explores joy, healing, and storytelling inspired by her identity as a Latina, woman, and immigrant.
As a public artist, Lys describes her role as “a translator”—listening to communities, honoring their stories, and reflecting them through intentional design. Her current projects include a commission for the Joan Means Khabele Bathhouse Rehabilitation.
