Manage Anxiety with These Strategies

Sometimes it can be helpful to have a quick visual reminder of strategies to manage stress and anxiety. Change can be really good, and if you remember some self-care strategies, it may be easier, too. 

Making Memories of Summer in Austin!

As summer is heading into its last stretch before school begins in August, take advantage of making those great summer activities into photo opportunities!

• Create bag art for Terra Toys.
• Give your budding photogs a chance to capture their favorite pieces of public art.
• Pose for a family photo with Austin street art, murals, and mosaics in the background.
