Wild About Music
About
615 N Congress Ave, Austin, TX 78701, USA Get directions
Wild About Music is a Congress Avenue shop built around the intersection of music and visual art, where you'll find original and reproduced works alongside band-related memorabilia, T-shirts, and gifts that lean into Austin's identity as a music town. It's worth a browse if you're walking the downtown stretch near the Capitol and want something more local than the usual souvenir fare.

Bullock Texas State History Museum
Austin
Three floors of exhibits trace the "Story of Texas" from its Indigenous peoples through Spanish colonization, revolution, and statehood, with the museum's IMAX screen and the special-effects Texas Spirit Theater rounding out a visit. You'll spot it from down Congress Avenue by the giant bronze Lone Star out front, just a few blocks north of the Capitol.
History Museum
Thinkery
Austin
Thinkery is Austin's children's museum, set in the Mueller development on the city's east side, where hands-on exhibits invite kids to tinker with light, water, gears, and circuits rather than just look. Plan around the schedule if you can—the museum stays open late on Tuesdays, a quieter window than the weekend crowds.

BookPeople
Austin
BookPeople is Austin's longtime independent bookstore on North Lamar, a sprawling two-story space where you can easily lose an hour wandering the stacks, browsing the staff recommendation cards, and flipping through one of the deepest selections in the city. It's a frequent stop on author tours, so check the events calendar before you visit — there's a good chance a reading or signing is happening while you're in town.
