A lively outdoor gathering at a quirky, art-filled venue in Austin, Texas. The space features bright pink triangular sun shades stretched overhead and matching pink umbrellas covering metal café tables and picnic benches. People of various ages sit at the tables, chatting, eating, and enjoying the relaxed atmosphere. A small stage at the center is framed by a corrugated metal roof and decorated with a bold black-and-white abstract mural; a DJ stands behind a booth with speakers on either side. Surrounding the space are lush green plants, string lights with pink bulbs, and a misting fan creating a fine haze for cooling. A white trailer with a large QR code and thank-you message for supporting The VORTEX sits to the left, blending into the venue’s artsy, community-focused vibe.

An inflatable movie screen is set up at the edge of the pool, with inflatable floats and colorful drinks adding to the festive atmosphere. Some guests float in the water while others stand or sit poolside under red-and-white umbrellas. The motel’s retro sign and mid-century buildings are visible in the background.
