Earlier this month, a locally focused civics organization, a Functional Democracy held their product’s launch party at our Gather Venues Monroe location. The event was strategically held just one month before Texas’s midterm elections and welcomed comedians, civic arts and crafts, and two of Austin’s own city council members; Delia Garza and Greg Casar.
The African Leadership Bridge is championing the next generation of African leaders through sustainable scholarships and a strong support network to provide the tools and experience needed to drive change in the African continent.

Carrying Hope is a local Austin organization that aspires to give a Hope Pack filled with comfort and necessity items to every child entering the foster care system in Central Texas. This past February, they had their first annual fundraiser in our unique Gather Venues Monroe space.
Gather Venues’ blog strives to highlight the programs and projects that are making our Austin community and the communities around us a better place.
This month’s blog will focus on Art From the Streets, a local Austin organization that gives the enormous gift of self-esteem and financial support directly to the homeless artists that create it.
This past April, Art From the Streets held their annual fundraiser in our Gather Venues Lamar space, the event welcomed 130 guests who attended an auction of art from the organization’s constituents.
The mission of Art From the Streets is to provide a safe and encouraging environment in which the positive spirit and creativity of homeless and formerly homeless people is nurtured through artistic expression, and to provide them with a source of pride and income through the sale of their work.
Art From the Streets chose Gather Venues Lamar because of the accessible parking, our rock star staff, and is in a great part of town for their guests.
