The OYOU or “Own Your Own Universe” will be a community arts center in San Marcos, Texas. The concept for the OYOU is being built in honor of Marion “Mama Goat” Williamson. Beloved mentor, teacher, musician, author, organic gardener, and “Spiritual Kind.” Become a friend of the OYOU and help us turn a dream, into a reality. Imagine a place where people with all types of physical disabilities enjoy music, arts, crafts, and shows alongside everyone else — without the worry of social or mobility issues within the venue. Discover the arts in a unique and eclectic all ages facility and listening room. Join us for a wide scale of performances and gallery openings showcasing music, literature, and art harvested from the seeds of the Central Texas area and beyond. Discover your creativity by attending one of our year-round workshops and classes at the OYOU. Anyone (regardless of income) will experience the joy of learning a musical instrument, writing a song, or learning arts and crafts. Discovery your community at the OYOU. San Marcos has been voted one of the top 10 places to raise kids in the U.S., and boasts an active group of senior citizens. Get to know your neighbors in our cozy organic community garden or over a cup of our specialty roasted OYOU Coffee. |
