From the Editors

Dear Readers,

As we move into the warmer months, there's no denying the excitement that comes with the season of outdoor events. From concerts to food fairs, there's something for everyone to enjoy in Liberty Hill and towns around.

If you're looking for a diverse and exciting schedule, look no further than our upcoming local events lineup. Get ready for Whimsy and Wonder May 20, then we’ll be celebrating our nation with an Independence Day festival that's sure to make you feel equally nostalgic and patriotic, plus a stunning annual sculpture festival in October that will captivate art lovers of all ages.

We have also added a list of a full year's worth of festivals and events taking place across Williamson County and in Austin. You’ll want to save those pages, mark your calendars, and get ready to experience the best in art, music, culture, and community spirit.

When you're not out enjoying the fun, we have included a few recipes that will bring the festival to you. Plus, our JP2 is helping out with resources and ideas about mindfulness and well-being that may help us stay in a summertime mood year-round.

We hope you enjoy this issue, and that it inspires you to get out and experience the magic of Central Texas for yourself.

And, for all you moms, grandmoms, stepmoms, foster moms, and every woman who makes people feel like family, may your Mother’s Day be filled with love, laughter, and the appreciation you deserve.
