Speak Up for Art @ City Council

On August 6th, Buda City Council will decide whether or not to award the lease of the former city hall building in Downtown Buda to Inspired Minds Art Center in collaboration with Hill Country Theatre.

Having an art center and community theatre in the heart of downtown Buda will be a cultural, educational, economic, and healthful asset to our local community, artists, small business owners, and the greater Hays County area. It is an investment in an arts ecosystem in order to elevate new perspectives, encourage diversity, and make local communities more inclusive and vibrant.

Every City Council Meeting begins at 6:00pm and opens with an opportunity for public comments. Each person is allowed 3 minutes in front of City Council to express concerns, rally support, and applaud actions.

This is your chance to sit in, stand up, speak out, and direct your elected officials in their decision making.

We're lucky to have a governmental system which places its citizens at the top! Click on this link to learn about Public Comments and to sign up to speak.

Inspired Minds Art Center has drafted and submitted its proposal to lease the former city hall building and has presented it to City Staff. Now, it's in your hands!

While your voice is powerful, so is your presence! Even if you choose not to speak, please RSVP to let us know that you are coming to the City Council Meeting to show your support for the arts.

We thank you for SPEAKING UP FOR ART! We'll see you on August 6th at 5:45!
