Austin Official Visitors Guide 2008-2009 - (Page 90) Austin plays to a diverse population of cultures, political leanings and lifestyles. The newly opened Mexican American Cultural Center anchors the Hispanic community, as does the Carver Museum for the city’s African-American neighborhoods. An increasing Asian influence has resulted in many festivals, parades and cultural performances. And Austin has long been regarded as one of the friendliest cities in the country for GLBT travelers and residents. Left to right: Dining out on the town in Austin; George Washington Carver Museum.
