LOUNGE Design-A-Thon

Please join us Friday, June 6th from 5-9pm for LOUNGE Design-A-Thon, a pop-up celebration of rest.

LOUNGE Design-A-Thon brings together Austin makers and artists to exhibit new possibilities in object form. In a world that tells us over and over that we aren’t allowed to, how can we give ourselves access to rest? This one day exhibition is a temporary dream space of accessibility and leisure where we can, for at least a moment, let ourselves be. Come lounge with us!
