Got some time at the Austin airport? There's many distractions in plane sight.
"The airport expansion development program involves the building of the new terminal and other structures," confirms Cory Hurless, the airport's Art, Music, & Graphics manager."Which will trigger more AIPP involvement – it'll keep Constance busy until she retires."
So here's AIPP and Airport Art working together, with Hurless in charge of Airport Art."It's a strange job, isn't it?" says she."I didn't go to school thinking I was going to work in an airport. My degrees are in art history and anthropology, and my master's is in museum administration. So I did that for a few years – I was the curator for smaller museums – then I applied here. And there were 80 applicants, and I never thought I'd get it, but here I am.
"But, even with that in place, we still have the largest live music program in airports in the U.S.," continues Hurless."We have 40 weekly performances. And now you have to come here, what, two or three hours early? And after you've gone through the stress of going through security, you can relax and listen to some music and view rotating exhibits from local artists."
