SUMMARY:Montopolis Negro School Rehabilitation: The Montopolis Proud and Alumni Focus Group
DESCRIPTION:As part of the community engagement process for the Historic Montopolis Negro School Vision and Interpretive Plan\, the project team is hosting a focus group session with Montopolis Proud members and former students (alumni) of the Montopolis Negro School. This is one of several focused\, small-group conversations designed to gather detailed input from people with a direct\, personal connection to the school’s history. \nParticipants for this session have been personally invited so that the team can listen closely to their memories\, perspectives\, and priorities for the site’s future. Because this is a focused conversation with a specific group\, structured input will be gathered from invited participants. \nMembers of the public are welcome to attend and observe. This is one of many opportunities to be involved: larger community meetings open to all residents will follow\, where everyone will have the chance to share feedback and help shape the vision for the school. We encourage anyone interested in the project to attend those upcoming meetings\, sign up for updates\, and stay engaged throughout the process. \nTo receive notice of future community meetings and project updates\, email ACME

SUMMARY:Summer Education Series: Mountain Cedars
DESCRIPTION:Event Date: Saturday\, June 27th\nTime: 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM\nLocation: virtually on Google Meet\, or in person at Hornsby Bend Center for Environmental Research\, 2210 FM973\, Austin\, TX 78725 \nPLEASE REGISTER HERE \nFor more than 100 years\, we’ve fought the woody brush spreading across the limestone regions of Texas\, called karst country. Much of this woody cover consists of native juniper trees\, commonly called mountain cedars. Instead of causing harm\, we now know mountain cedars act as ecosystem engineers to improve and sustain Texas karst country function. Come learn about these benefits and what we can do to use mountain cedars as another nature-based solution to help enhance soil health\, groundwaters\, productivity\, property values\, and resilience. \nElizabeth McGreevy\, a sixth-generation Texas and Texas A&M graduate\, is a natural resources ecologist and author of Wanted! Mountain Cedars\, Dead and Alive. The owner of Land Steward\, she relies on more than 25 years of experience to produce ecosystem-based management plans for Hill Country landowners. In 2022\, she founded Project Bedrock\, now in partnership with The Watershed Association\, to promote using mountain cedars and other nature-based solutions to regenerate the limestone karst country regions of Texas. \nThis training is free and open to anyone\, but you must register to attend. If you have any questions or concerns\, please contact Gillian: volunteer@treefolks.org\, (512) 761-8738 cell

SUMMARY:Beyond the Petal: Texas Native Plants and Their Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Old Bakery & Emporium for an art exhibition featuring the work of The Lone Star Botanical Artists \n\n\n\n\nThe Lone Star Botanical Artists is a statewide circle of the American Society of Botanical Artists\, an organization “dedicated to providing a thriving\, interactive community that perpetuates the tradition and contemporary practice of botanical art.” \nEach piece in this exhibition grows out of that act of attention\, and together they form Beyond the Petal: Texas Native Plants and Their Pollinators—a living story of connection. In the structure of a leaf\, the brief life of a bloom\, and the quiet resilience of a threatened species\, we find both subject and story. Butterflies\, bees\, and birds move through these works as they do in the landscape\, drawn to the plants that sustain them and\, in turn\, carrying pollen that allows these communities to endure. \nAt the opening reception\, we are pleased to welcome Kyle Cheesborough\, Director of Gardens and Collections at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. He will share insights into pollinators and their vital relationships with native plants\, offering a deeper perspective on the living connections that inspire this exhibition.

SUMMARY:Discussion of "Cost of Cool" & "Lost in Austin"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an online discussion on June 18th! \n\n\n\n\nOnline via Google Meet. Register to receive the Meet Link. \nIf there is one constant about Austin\, it is the following — since its founding in 1839\, the city has almost always featured rapid growth\, change\, transition and evolution. \nIn recent years\, much of this growth and evolution has been pushed by the rise and consolidation of the tech industry in Central Texas. Two relatively new books (“Cost of Cool: Austin’s Tech Growth and the People Left Behind” and “Lost in Austin: The Evolution of an American City: An Insightful Dive into Austin’s Rapid Evolution\, Discover the Changing Face of this Iconic City”) explore the positive and not-so-positive changes that the tech boom has brought to the city’s personality. \nJoin us on Thursday evening\, June 18 as we discuss these two books\, as well as talk more broadly about where the city of Austin is now and where it is going in the future. \nAttendance Instructions \nThe discussion will be held online via Google Meet. Please register to receive the meet link!

SUMMARY:The Carver Kickback: Artist Talk with Hakeem Adewumi
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Hakeem Adewumi and Rachel Winston\, Black Diaspora Archivist at the University of Texas at Austin\, for an intimate conversation about Seeing Further — a mixed-media exhibition exploring Juneteenth as a living Black Southern tradition rooted in Texas mythology\, African spirituality\, and the supernatural. Hakeem shares the personal history\, family objects\, and landscape that shaped the work\, and what it means to make art that listens to ancestors. \n\n\nTogether\, Hakeem and Rachel will sit with a question at the heart of the show: what happens to a regional ethos of liberation when the world claims it as its own? Come prepared for an honest\, grounded conversation about memory\, place\, and what it means for all of us to see further into Juneteenth. \nRSVP here.

We encourage you to submit any questions for CapMetro you may have as well. \nClosed captions will be available in English\, and interpretation in American Sign Language (ASL)\, Spanish\, Arabic\, Burmese\, and Vietnamese will be provided upon request. Please note: The deadline to submit questions and request language interpretation is Monday\, June 8 at 5 p.m. CT to allow time for preparation. \nMore info: Raising Travis County is a voter-approved initiative to expand access to affordable\, high-quality child care and out-of-school time programs\, including after-school and summer enrichment for eligible families. Strategic investments are already underway to strengthen local infrastructure\, support providers\, and prepare families for expanded access\, with full rollout beginning in 2026.

SUMMARY:LGBTQ+ Community Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:Hey y’all!!! We want to connect!! I work from a booth at Lynny’s on 12th pretty frequently. It’s my favorite little diner spot here in town and it’s queer owned! We want more opportunities… and less formal ways… that queers in the community can talk to me or others on the City’s LGBTQ+ Commission. We know it’s tough out there… we’re all volunteers on this commish… but we know solidarity is key for us to survive this! \nStop by and chat with me and sometimes special guests! We look forward to seeing you and if you can’t make it during the day\, you can always come to our meetings on the third Monday of the month. You can also fill out this community feedback form!
