AustOberfest

Passport 2 Africa Fashion Show Extravaganza

“I love the idea of mixing fashion with Africa, and it’s something I’ve done in the past and hope to do more of in the future. After three collections with genocide survivors in Rwanda, I am hosting entrepreneurs from Rwanda this month who are working on their own businesses. The inspiration in Africa knows no bounds, and the colors and spirit of the continent never cease to amaze me.”

Sept. 16, 4 to 8 p.m. | Jabito Events Center, 900 East Braker Ln, suite 125
eventbrite.com/e/passport-2-africa-fashion-show-extravaganza-tickets-36162180054?/aff=erellivmlt | Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door.

Fall Pecan Street Festival

“One of Austin’s most cherished and oldest events, this free two-day arts festival is ripe with, if nothing else, spectacular people watching. Stroll East Sixth Street—formerly known as Pecan Street—and, tent after tent, peruse the crafty, artisan wares from both local and national vendors. More than 60 musical acts provide live music for the moseying crowd, and family-friendly activities—from magicians to a petting zoo—line the street. Pro tip: Grab a bag of kettle corn from one of the many food-vendor booths and enjoy the occasional breeze that signals fall in Austin.” – April Cumming

Sept. 23 and 24, 11 a.m. | Sixth Street
pecanstreetfestival.org | Registration starts at $50.
