Six Square Austin's Black Cultural District

Six Square is the nexus of thriving Black arts and culture in Central East Austin. We re-animate cultural spaces, connect community, and honor the past, present, and future of Austin’s Black Cultural District.

We envision a vibrant future for the District that grows from the rich legacy and cultural contributions of Austin’s Black community.

“The District is six square miles of historic geographic sites that we are preserving for future generations. We are creating an incubation space where art and culture can be celebrated and enjoyed and brought to the limelight, not just for the community who lives here, but for all of Austin and Austin’s visitors.” -- James Nortey, Six Square Board member
