rio grande
A short hop from the bustling culture and nightlife of Austin’s Downtown, Rio Grande Campus is the de facto destination for students looking to foster their creative spirit. Featuring sculpture and ceramic workshops, ACC’s only dance studio, and two performance theaters, Rio Grande has plenty of space for students to sculpt, craft, create, and move. All of ACC’s dance classes are hosted at Rio Grande as well as upper division theatre. Aspiring actors can hone their craft on stage in the numerous productions put on at Rio Grande, while those looking to work behind the scenes will love the set building freedom afforded by the scene shop. The perks of being centrally located unfortunately mean that parking can be a bit sparse, but with the new seven story parking garage scheduled to be open and operating mere blocks from campus, students should find their walking distance dramatically shortened.
