“Experience Austin should really be called Essential Austin because the overview it provides is essential for every civic-minded Austinite. It is foundational for understanding such a dynamic place and finding avenues for greater engagement and understanding.” – Ryan Frederick
“As a recent transplant to Austin, I didn’t want to be the new guy that tried to deep dive into the community without any context. Thankfully, I found the Experience Austin program within The Leadership Austin suite of programming. I know only time will help me feel like I have been here for a long time, but this class gave me the help I needed to get engaged with the community.” – Tony Prenger
“The sessions were an excellent investment in my personal development. I upgraded my knowledge of our community, learned new facts and re-contextualized many of my previous beliefs.” – Karen Brimble
