This year, things are getting real — as in surreal! Embark on a surrealist safari through our 14-acre, lakeside sculpture park with surprising encounters at every turn.
Enter a world of whimsy with spellbinding performancesby chamber orchestra and new music collective Density 512, thereminist Aileen Adler, and a coterie of slithery friends with Austin Reptile Show.
Transform into a fantastical creature with face painting and mask making. Then, let your imagination run wild with critter-themed art making adventures.
And join creative forces with fellow Very ‘Rary goers on a collaborative Exquisite Corpse.
With dreamy tea parties, secret passageways, themed photo-ops, tasty treats galore and more—your magical journey awaits!
