Raasin in the Sun is taking the lead in curating and driving community engagement for Blocks 16 and 18 on East 11th Street. Right in the heart of the African American Cultural Heritage District, this project blends affordable housing, retail, and cultural spaces while making sure the area’s history stays front and center.
Before the construction kicks off, we’ll be activating the space with art, culture, and community-driven projects that reflect the real vibe of East Austin. The aim is to create a space that’s not just functional, but genuinely connected to the people and the culture that make this area what it is. Think public art, creative events, and spaces that feel authentic.
Even once the development is done, we’re staying involved. Raasin in the Sun will be curating ongoing programming that brings in local artists, cultural experiences, and opportunities for everyone to stay connected. It’s about keeping the spirit of East Austin alive and pushing it forward at the same time.
