“Austin Museum Day is a cherished annual celebration in the Austin community, and we’re sending out an open invitation to all—locals and visitors alike—to embark on a day of exploration,” Brittany Petrilli, Secretary of the Austin Museum Partnership, said. “We have both flagship institutions and smaller, hidden gems in the Austin area ready to share their experiences. While Austin Museum Day may serve as an introduction to the world of local museums for many, our aspiration extends beyond this event. We hope to inspire enduring connections with our museums throughout the year.”
