South Austin Gallery is going mobile.

The first Austin Art Cart was unveiled Nov. 14 during an event at South Austin Gallery. The cart can be found at Threadgills, 301 W. Riverside Drive, each Sunday morning and the Austin Trail of Lights in Zilker Park from Dec. 8–22. Owners Joseph and Jennifer Worth also plan to park the cart at various art festivals in the coming months.

The new venture follows a trend of expansions for the gallery, which started in 2005 as a photography business before South Austin Gallery opened in 2010 at 507A W. Mary St. The art cart will mostly sell coasters, cutting boards and other goods that have iconic Austin imagery on them—the same merchandise the gallery has for sale at 25 locations throughout Austin, Jennifer Worth said.

The idea for an art cart came after Joseph Worth watched the 2012 Quentin Tarantino film "Django Unchained" in which a traveling dentist pulls a carriage with a large, decorative tooth atop it.

"He knew he had to recreate some version of the bouncing tooth," Jennifer Worth said.

The couple found a vintage ice cream truck and worked with graphic designer Ellen Rutt and the Ion Art Team to design the first Austin Art Cart, complete with a bouncing sign on top. 512-680-4018. www.southaustingallery.com
