RRCD kicks off District Dialogues event series

Red River Cultural District’s focus this year on telling its story and highlighting the connections between music, heritage, culture and commerce will kick off March 1 with its first District Dialogues event. The quarterly event series is designed to spark conversation, showcase creatives and bring the community together. The first edition takes place at Swan Dive (615 Red River St.), featuring rare screenings of the documentaries “Blue Flamingo” and “The Cavity,” which explore the history of some of Austin’s most storied music venues. Attendees can also check out a limited-edition Red River zine, a mini book sale from UT Press, and a taco pop-up from Pelon’s Tex-Mex. District Dialogues is made possible through new city funding awarded last fall, supporting efforts to preserve and amplify Austin’s live music culture. Tickets are available online.
