The VORTEX, in partnership with the Austin Creative Alliance, Art Alliance Austin, Mosaic Sound Collective, Big Medium, Fallout Theater and Preservation Austin will host a Creative Sector Candidates Forum on Tuesday, September 25th, 2018. The forum will be held at The VORTEX, 2307 Manor Road, beginning at 4:00 PM and ending at 6:00 PM. Doors will be opened at 3:30pm, and there will be an opportunity for meet and greet with the public before and after the event.
The purpose of the Candidate Forum is to give Austin voters an opportunity to hear candidates discuss important issues related to the creative sector and the preservation of Austin’s cultural and architectural heritage. The event is free and open to the public. The candidates will answer pre-determined questions during this moderated event. The forum will be held inside the theatre. The theatre holds about 100 people, and for those we cannot accommodate inside, the event will be streamed live on Facebook. The moderator will explain the procedures to the audience and introduce the candidates. The forum will be recorded and the media are invited to attend. Time limits for all comments will be strictly enforced. In fairness to all candidates and the audience, we ask that these limits be respected. Each candidate will have 2 minutes for opening remarks to introduce themselves. The moderator will then ask the provided questions. So that we can address as many questions as possible in the time available, each candidate will have 1 minute to answer each question. If time permits, candidates will also have 1 minute for a closing statement.
