With deep appreciation and many thanks to Austin photographer and videographer Carlton Wade for capturing the production so beautifully. Please visit Austin sponsors Milk and Honey Spa, Skandinavia Texas and the venue AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center--who enabled such a beautiful Austin production.
10 percent of Austin’s ticket proceeds benefit two causes. Any Baby Can works to improve the lives of children by strengthening them and their families through education, therapy and family support services. Each year, the agency serves more than 6,000 of the youngest, sickest, and poorest children and their families in the Central Texas area. LTYM’s national cause City of Joy provides necessary skills and support for survivors of gender violence in Bukavu Democratic Republic to rebuild and transform their lives.
Thank you Austin, and we hope to see you again next year!!
