What makes it fun

The Color Inside is a magical skyspace creation by artist James Turrell. The public art program of The University of Texas known as Landmarks, presents this incredible space that is open to everyone. The best time to experience the eye-catching art is at sunrise or sunset, during sequences of light that last approximately 1 hour. Grab your sweetheart & enjoy a romantic sunset at The Color Inside.

Booked time and had a lovely walk through UT, a haven of greenery, few cars and green areas just as a University campus should be.
The Art venue and installation of «The Color Inside» is a much needed thing for Austin and one of those moments in life where we reflect and become aware.
Love the combination of art + nature and this is a really kool place that i strongly recommend to visit in Austin. One of three favorites of the week in Austin. A MUST visit!

I WOULD have loved it if I could have gotten in. Made a reservation, but doors to SAC are locked at 5pm. Even a student walking by couldn't swipe in. In photo here you see it on top of building at left.

Really something - if you're patient, you'll be willing to relax and see the magic of this installation. I was surprised to feel that the seats are heated, also! Quite comfortable, even in a full space.

Expect to be quiet when you visit - prepare your family lol

It’s all the way at the top of the building on the roof.
What makes this piece special compared to some similar ones is the colored lights event in the evenings.

Be sure to book a viewing for the light show in the evening in advance because it can fill up. Reservations open one day in advance. Other times of day though the space is open to general public and has a wide range of hours.

See the light, free your mind, free of charge. James Turrell's art experience on the roof deck of the Student Activities center at the University of Texas is a hidden gem on the list of fantastic & free things to do in Austin. Reserve tickets online for the sunset show, which features a light show coordinated with the changing sky as it shifts from day to night.
