Red Salmon Arts and Resistencia Bookstore
About
2000 Thrasher Ln, Austin, TX 78741, USA Get directions
Resistencia Bookstore, the heart of the Red Salmon Arts collective, has long been a gathering place for Austin's Chicano and Latino literary community, with shelves leaning heavily toward poetry, political writing, and small-press voices you won't easily find elsewhere. Founded in the tradition of poet raúlrsalinas, it doubles as a community space for readings and organizing, so it's worth checking ahead during its limited midweek afternoon hours.

It sits next to the historic Hancock Golf Course, so it's an easy stop to pair with a walk through one of Austin's older, leafier residential corners.
