The goal of our organization is to provide the capital city of Texas with first-quality and highly original works of monumental statuary. It is not our intention to recreate the stiff, formal postures of the past. We believe that the works themselves should reflect the wit and charm and common humanity of the culture that we live in. The art that we commission will be given to the City of Austin for the pleasure and edification of its citizens.

Angelina Eberly statue by Pat Oliphant

On Sunday, September 26, 2004, our newest statue was unveiled at the corner of Sixth Street and Congress Avenue in downtown Austin, TX. Angelina Eberly, known by some as the "Savior of Austin," has been depicted by sculptor and renowned cartoonist, Pat Oliphant, in her heroic stance at the town cannon in 1842, chasing off the Sam Houston's vandalous Texas Rangers in their attempt to steal off with the state's archives in the middle of the night.

CAST's first project, Philosophers' Rock, was installed in 1994 at the entrance to Austin's popular and historical Barton Springs Pool. Designed by the renowned sculptor Glenna Goodacre (who also designed the Vietnam Women's Memorial in Washington, DC, and the image of Sacajawea on the one-dollar coin), the statue depicts three of Central Texas's most famous writers and intellectuals engaged in spirited debate at water's edge.
