Austin Arts Collective

Mainly Art is a vibrant outdoor celebration of creativity, putting the spotlight on 15 different visual artists each month. Stroll downtown’s charming Main Street to discover a diverse array of artwork and glean inspiration too! It’s called Mainly Art because it takes place on Main Street—and it’s all about art!
This series will take place on September 27, October 25 , November 15, and December 13, with an array of different artists for you to meet and shop from each time!

Join us for our biggest recurring event: Every second Saturday of the month!
Amongst our many boutiques and shops and more than 100 artists, you will experience an exciting creative vibe, special events, refreshments, and more!
Events vary from month to month and something is always happening in the Muse Gallery so make this a regular fun stop to chill with artists in their natural habitat!

From Unchained.Art: "Unchained.Art Contemporary Gallery continues its inaugural season with a new capsule exhibition format designed to spotlight singular artistic voices alongside and in dialogue with the gallery’s main program. Following a short pilot earlier this year, the concept now takes full form with Artist in Focus: Erik Neimeijer, a vibrant four-week presentation running November 13 – December 13. A Celebration of Rhythm, Color, and Creative Drive Erik Neimeijer is a Dutch musician and painter whose medium-to-large-scale, high-color canvases pulse with rhythm and life. His world is populated by gamblers, bulls, lovers, musicians, and tropical dreamers — all rendered in a loose yet unmistakable style that he describes as “somewhere between Walt Disney and Diego Rivera.” A self-taught force of energy, Neimeijer channels the same drive that fuels his rock-and-roll career into painting. A guitarist and singer for the Dutch band Bökkers, in 2017 he had his first art exhibition and since then has painted and exhibited at an incredible pace. Neimeijer has since exhibited at the Herman Brood Museum in the Netherlands, DAC Concepts Gallery in Greece, Red Dot Miami, and at galleries in Paris, London, Madrid, and New York. His practice unfolds at the same unstoppable pace as his music — joyful, unapologetic, and deeply human. “I paint like I play,” Neimeijer says. “Fast, loud, and with love. My paintings are about the things that make life worth living — the chaos, the color, and the beat that keeps it all going.” Neimeijer transforms Unchained.Art’s downtown gallery into a stage of saturated emotion and narrative play. These works are not portraits or scenes so much as songs — painted compositions vibrating with sound and motion. They capture the thrill of imperfection, the freedom of gesture, and the shared pulse between artist and audience. Running concurrently with the gallery’s main exhibition, this capsule marks the full launch of Unchained.Art’s new programming: compact, high-energy showcases that offer intimate encounters with artists whose practices defy convention while staying accessible and authentic."
