For the past four years, Art Outside was a community based art show tucked away in the Enchanted Forest during the week of South By Southwest. Both an alternate venue and haven for those who were hipster-weary and overwhelmed with the scene downtown, Art Outside focused on bringing art and performance out of the galleries and theaters and into the great outdoors. Fast forward to 2009, and with the closure of the forest, the fate of the event was uncertain. With Maker Faire also not returning to Austin this year, the city faced a significant shortage of inspiring art festivals. Luckily, Art Seen Alliance and their fearless founder, Warren McKinney picked up the project and Art Outside will continue at a new venue with an expanded schedule. Taking place over the weekend of October 9th through 11th, the event will be held at Apache Pass, an outdoor events and camping venue North East of Austin. We sat down with Warren, who told us all about Art Outside's ambitious new incarnation.
