Join Ruby City for a special celebration of Generative Disruption: Feminist Art from the Collection with an exhibition walkthrough led by Ruby City Director Elyse A. Gonzales. Bringing together works from the Linda Pace Foundation Collection, the exhibition explores ideas surrounding domesticity, identity, care, beauty, memory, and the ways women’s experiences have shaped artistic practices.
Visitors will gain insight into the exhibition’s themes and curatorial framework, considering how artists engage with personal and collective histories, everyday life, spirituality, dreaming, and questions of social and cultural power. Together, the works offer a reflection on what it means to create, imagine, inhabit, nurture, and resist.
Following the walkthrough, guests are invited to a reception with music by DJ Heavyflow, food from Norichmen, and complimentary beverages. Join us for an afternoon of conversation, connection, and celebration.

Ruby City & Trinity University KRTU’s partnership continues with a special installment of Music in the Park featuring Money Chicha!
Guests are invited to bring folding chairs or picnic blankets and enjoy an evening of live music under the stars. Complimentary light bites and drinks will be provided.
This event is free and open to all. Registration is not required.
Money Chicha is an Austin, Texas based group featuring members of the Grammy-award winning Latin orchestra Grupo Fantasma and its offshoot funk outfit Brownout which performs a fuzzed-out, reverb-drenched and percussion-heavy style of music inspired by the sounds of Peru and Colombia in the 60’s and 70’s. This style of music, sometimes called “Chicha” music, is known for its infectious Latin beat, its psychedelic, surf guitar pyrotechnics and its melodies influenced by the indigenous culture of the Andes mountains.
Ruby City presents Weed is a Word, a site-responsive project by Julia Barbosa Landois that transforms a fenced lot into a space for reflection, gathering, and ecological reimagining. Through the garden installation, Landois explores how language shapes ideas of belonging, considering how the term “weed” is used to define what is valued, excluded, or removed.
At the center of the project, a garden interrupts the existing turf, reintroducing plant species often dismissed or “weeded out” of contemporary landscapes, including native and beneficial varieties such as goldenrod, purslane, and sunflower. By foregrounding these plants, the work invites visitors to reconsider systems of classification in both ecological and human contexts, drawing connections between cultivation, migration, and care.
Situated at the Studio Yard, in dialogue with a nearby text work by Daniel Joseph Martinez, the project reflects on how definitions of beauty and value are constructed and contested. What is removed, what is preserved, and who decides?
Join us on October 10 from 11AM-1PM, for a public gathering and to meet the artist.
Free and open to all.

Dreamwork Workshop is a recurring series that explores dreams as a catalyst for reflection, imagination, and personal growth. Guided by a certified dream interpreter, each session introduces foundational dreamwork practices through conversation, guided exercises, readings, and practical techniques that participants can continue using long after the workshop ends.
Designed for both beginners and returning participants, the series offers approachable ways to improve dream recall, recognize recurring images and symbols, and build a personal practice rooted in curiosity rather than fixed interpretation. While every workshop explores a different aspect of dreamwork, each provides a welcoming introduction to using dreams as a source of creativity, self-discovery, and deeper awareness.
No prior experience is required.
Free to attend, space is limited. Reserve your spot!
