On Saturday night, Art Alliance Austin hosted Art After Dark Austin, a party benefiting both Austin Museum of Art and the Blanton Museum of Art. The event was part of Art City Austin and various artists were showing and selling their work to the late night crowd. Jaclyn Pryor's interactive art installation, pink unplugged was up and running, and participants could type love letters at the pink factory and have them delivered about town by couriers. Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears performed and attendees enjoyed fine food and beverages from area caterers and restaurants.
