Almost two years ago to the day, Pure Barre Lakeway announced new ownership and a makeover of sorts. Well, PB Lakeway is still going strong because the studio just finished another makeover and rolled out new classes too.

Written by |

If this cray cray Texas heat has you holed up in your house, blasting the AC 24/7, then maybe it’s time to get out and have some fun supporting local initiatives in Lake Travis. After all, the 10-day forecast only calls for temperatures in the high 90s.

We’ve seen a refreshing rise in local art awareness with the opening of new art galleries and studios. (Don’t forget, the call for mural art entries are being accepted through August 31.) Additionally, the City of Bee Cave continues to make plans for connectivity with more bike and pedestrian trails to decrease traffic congestion.

You could say we’re flexing our right-brain muscles to let our creative side shine brighter.

That said, two free events are coming up at Hill Country Galleria: HEATWAVE presented by ContraCommon on August 30 and Bicycles, Blues & Brews on September 7.
