Good Work Austin Community Mixer

Join us on Giving Tuesday as we bring together the people who make Austin’s food and beverage community shine—our member businesses, neighbors who love supporting local restaurants, and prospective members curious about joining the Good Work Austin network.

This holiday-season happy hour is all about connection, celebration, and giving back. Grab a drink on us (first come, first served), meet fellow business owners and supporters, and experience the impact GWA is making across Austin’s hospitality industry.

Why Join Us on Giving Tuesday

• Connect with community: Meet GWA members, local supporters, and small businesses.

Special Highlight: The Austin Coffee Box

You can also support GWA on Giving Tuesday by purchasing an Austin Coffee Box — a collaborative holiday blend from five local roasters: Creature Coffee, Epoch, Wild Gift, Armadillo Roasters, and Brew Flora. 100% of proceeds support GWA’s Culinary Workforce Training Program, and boxes will be available to learn about and purchase while supplies last.
