The Arc of the Capital Area has enjoyed a home at 2818 San Gabriel for almost 50 years.  In 2015, our lease with the City of Austin will expire and the City has informed us that they intend to move into our building.

 

We have initiated a building campaign in an effort to raise $1.5 Million by December 31, 2012.  This will be phase one toward a $3 Million goal. We are in need of 10,000 to 12,000 square feet of space which will house The Arc of the Capital Area staff as well as the Arc of the Arts Studio and Gallery. 

 

Contact Susan Eason, Executive Director at 512.476.7044 ext. 208 /season@arcofthecapitalarea.org for more information.
 

The Arc of the Capital Area will hold its 13th annual "Building Bridges" Art Celebration & Auction, Wednesday, October 3, 2012 at the Hilton-Austin Downtown. THE art event to attend in Austin, the gala features over 150 original art pieces. More than 50 percent of the art is created by our artists at the Arc of the Arts Studio and Gallery with the remainder coming from community supporters.

 

In addition to the amazing art available, the evening is complimented by a stellar silent auction supported by more than 100 local business package donations and a live auction, featuring other original Arc of the Art's masterpieces.

 

We anticipate this year's event will be better than ever before, and we look forward to seeing you there!

The Arc of the Capital Area and the Texas Bar Foundation are excited to announce the continuation of the Future Care Guardianship program. With help from the Texas Bar Foundation we are able to continue our Future Care Guardianship Program, which ensures that families in Travis County who are impacted by intellectual/ developmental disabilities (i.e., Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, etc.) have a legal plan for their loved ones' future needs. To find out more about this grant you can visit our website.

The Arc of Texas will be providing trainings and ongoing support to self-advocates and their caregivers through Project MOVE (Mobilize and Organize self-advocates/families/allies to use their Voices to Empower communities and create meaningful change). The project is designed to teach effective advocacy skills along with increasing community engagement. This is an exciting opportunity that we hope you are able to participate in!
