Women and LGBTQ+ filmmakers from all over Texas showcase their independent work, preceded by an artist panel and magic show.

Front Festival: Film

This delightful (and very kid-friendly) fundraiser from the Contemporary Austin takes over the lawns, woods, and shoreline of Laguna Gloria with experiences that play on illusion, inspired by the park's many sculptures throughout the grounds.: Among the afternoon's highlights: Performances by Sky Candy aerialists, Glass Half Full Theater and Polly Mermaid, and the Austin School of Rock.

Laguna Gloria: The Very 'Rary

Explore your physical relationship to the landscape, engage with the history and function of native plants, and even grab kid-friendly art kits inspired by nature, along with an herb tea drinking session led by herbalist Brandi Jo Perkins, founder of Earth Commons. Bring a cup to sip your tea, a journal and pen for reflection, and blankets for seating if you like.
