Another wonderful weekend is here, and there are so many great things to do in and around Austin. Here are the top 10 FREE Austin events happening this weekend.

  1. UT Brainstorms: A Conversation on the Brain
    Friday, September 6 | from 7 to 8:30 p.m. | Lady Bird Johnson Auditorium, 2313 Red River Street

    The Department of Neuroscience at The University of Texas at Austin is excited to announce the topic for their next UT Brainstorms – The Floating Brain: A Conversation About Navigation, Memory, and Weightlessness in Space, with Dr. James Knierim! The purpose of UT Brainstorms is to connect with the Austin community, and ultimately with the Texas community, to inform and educate about neuroscience research and the influences it has on our daily lives. We seek a two-way conversation where we share our expertise about the brain and we listen to what it means in people’s lives and to the challenges they face as it relates to the brain.  Attendance is free, and complimentary parking is available on-site at LBJ on a first-come, first-served basis.
