Accessing Austin: Breaking Barriers In The Capitol City

Defined by its transformation from a hamlet on the banks of the Colorado River to a global powerhouse, Austin is a city firmly planted in the cultural landscape of Texas, the United States, and the World. This exhibit explores the fight to gain this position and brings light to key players within those discussions.
