BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN: PARTI. Findings. (A) In 1979, the Cily Council adopted the "Austin Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan." (B) Article X, Section 5 of the City Charter authorizes the City Council to adopt by ordinance additional elements of a comprehensive plan that are necessary or desirable to establish and implement policies for growth, development, and beautification, including neighborhood, community, or area-wide plans. (C) In December 2002, the Central Austin neighborhood was selected to work with the City to complete a neighborhood plan. The Central Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan followed a process first outlined by the Citizens' Planning Committee in 1995, and refined by the Ad Hoc Neighborhood Planning Committee in 1996. The City Council endorsed this approach for neighborhood planning in a 1997 resolution. This process mandated representation of all of the stakeholders in the neighborhood and required active public outreach. The City Council directed the Planning Commission to consider the plan in a 2002 resolution. During the planning process, the Central Austin Combined Neighborhood Planning Team gathered information and solicited public input through the following means: (1.) neighborhood planning team meetings; (2) collection of existing data; (3) neighborhood inventory; (4) neighborhood survey; (5) neighborhood workshops; (6) community-wide meetings; and (7) a neighborhood final survey.

Mary Jones: Last First Lady of the Republic of Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), December 2011, 275 pp., 3 tables, 2 illustrations, bibliography, 327 titles. This dissertation uses archival and interpretive methods to examine the life and contributions of Mary Smith McCrory Jones in Texas. Specifically, this project investigates the ways in which Mary Jones emerged into the public sphere, utilized myth and memory, and managed her life as a widow. Each of these larger areas is examined in relation to historiographicaly accepted patterns and in the larger context of women in Texas, the South, and the nation during this period. Mary Jones, 1819-1907, experienced many of the key early periods in Anglo Texas history. The research traces her family’s immigration to Austin’s Colony and their early years under Mexican sovereignty. The Texas Revolution resulted in her move to Houston and her first brief marriage. Following the death of her husband she met and married Anson Jones, a physician who served in public posts throughout the period of the Texas Republic. Over time Anson was politically and personally rejected to the point that he committed suicide.

  • The Contemporary Austin Brings Exhibition by Artist Abraham Cruzvillegas to Its Downtown Museum Location, the Jones Center on Congress Avenue
    CONTACT: Nicole Chism Griffin, PR – The Contemporary Austin [email protected] / 512 458 8191 x 142 (P) / 206 947 2312 (C) THE CONTEMPORARY AUSTIN BRINGS EXHIBITION BY ARTIST ABRAHAM CRUZVILLEGAS TO ITS DOWNTOWN MUSEUM LOCATION, THE JONES CENTER ON CONGRESS AVENUE Bridging sculpture, conceptual art, performance, and community engagement, Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? is co-organized by The Contemporary Austin and the Aspen Art Museum. After its presentation in Austin, the exhibition will travel to Aspen in fall 2019. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? March 30 – July 14, 2019 MARCH 18, 2019, AUSTIN, TEXAS – From March 30 through July 14, 2019, The Contemporary Austin—led by Executive Director and CEO Louis Grachos—will present an exhibition by artist Abraham Cruzvillegas (born 1968 in Mexico City) at its Jones Center location, 700 Congress Avenue in downtown Austin. Abraham Cruzvillegas: Hi, how are you, Gonzo? will fill both floors of the museum with site-specific, mixed media work in which recycled materials are transformed into abstract sculptural objects. These objects are then used as platforms to engage other artists, community members, and museum visitors as active participants in the artworks, allowing for creativity, experimentation, and social dialogue through collaborative “activations” that complete and transform the works on view. The exhibition is co-organized by Heather Pesanti, Chief Curator & Director of Curatorial Affairs at The Contemporary Austin, and Heidi Zuckerman, the Nancy and Bob Magoon CEO and Director of the Aspen Art Museum, where the exhibition will be on view from October 25, 2019, through January 2020. Abraham Cruzvillegas’s dynamic artistic practice begins with the concept of autoconstrucción—loosely defined as “self-construction,” an idea inspired by the artist’s home outside Mexico City and his interest in transformation, collaboration, and improvisation.
