Join Ruby City’s Visitor Services team for a free drop-in creative workshop that invites visitors to slow down, look closely, and explore the art of seeing. Inspired by artist and educator Corita Kent’s teaching methods, participants will use handmade “finders” to frame the world in new ways, practice mindful photography in the landscape around the Ruby City campus and create simple frames and journals to document their observations.
Through this playful, hands-on experience, guests will experiment with composition, color, and perspective to discover how everyday sights can transform into moments of creative reflection.
This program encourages all ages and skill levels to engage their individual creativity, deepen connections with artworks on view, and spark dialogue through mindful making. All materials will be provided. Participation is free and registration is not required.
Ruby City is located at 150 Camp Street. Free parking is available along Camp Street and Ruby City’s parking lot at 1203 S. Flores Street.

Ruby City & Trinity University KRTU’s partnership continues with a special installment of Music in the Park featuring Austin-based band NORI. Fronted by powerhouse vocalist Akina Adderley, granddaughter of jazz legend Nat Adderley, NORI blends jazz with soulful, genre-bending influences. Their lineup includes Erik Telford on trumpet, Nick Litterski on keys, Aaron Allen on upright bass, and Andy Beaudoin on drums.
Praised by Festival Peak as “a five-person gift from Austin, TX,” NORI’s latest album Walking Foot was named an Editor’s Choice Best Album of 2025 by Jazzwise Magazine and hailed by Paris Move as “an offering of vision, soul, and intellect, likely to be referenced and revered for years to come.”
For this special edition, Ruby City welcomes artist Diego Chavez, who will transform Ruby City’s Plaza with real-time creative-coding projections.

Guests are invited to bring folding chairs or picnic blankets and enjoy an evening of live music and light-based art under the stars. Complimentary light bites and drinks will be provided.
