Austin’s accessible “Touch the Art” exhibit returns with 80-plus artists and hands-on fun

The fourth annual "Touch the Art" exhibition has opened in East Austin, featuring over 80 artists and fully interactive, multisensory installations. Created in collaboration with the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired, the show is designed to be fully accessible, with wheelchair access, Braille wall text, and NFC audio tags that allow visitors to hear artists describe their work. The exhibition runs from May 9 through July 5 at the expanded Canopy space.

Austin Studio Tour goes citywide both weekends for the first time

The Austin Studio Tour, organized by the artist-run collective Almost Real Things, will take place over two weekends in November 2025 with over 300 official locations—the largest edition yet. For the first time, the tour is citywide both weekends instead of split between East and West Austin, and artists can choose which days to participate. A guidebook and interactive online map help visitors navigate by location, medium, or curated paths, and free bus tours are offered to feature lesser-known stops.
