Tempe denies AZ Hugs permit to feed homeless population. Why? 'Repeated defiance' azcentral.com/story/news/loc…

This @Austin_Davis17 poetry/art book is about living on the streets, levitating over water before drowning in it, and what makes such a tumultuous life worth it. a.co/d/gCOjRea @OutcastPress #artbook #Poetryforever

If this sticker doesn’t make it to the walls of every bridge, bus station,college campus, hole-in-the-wall pizza joint & motel kegger party, I’ll be disappointed. @Austin_Davis17’s rock and roll on attitude deserves as much. Message me or @OutcastPress to claim one w/ 📖purchase

Making art cool enough to be in the CD of ur fav old alt band. @Austin_Davis17 is a rock star of poetry, his words strumming in minds like indie folk lyrics. He now has 2 books w/ @OutcastPress & a third in discussion a.co/d/8DIfm0x

This awesome cover by @slicesofanxiety always reminds me of what could have been a #Nirvana album cover. @Austin_Davis17 definitely gives off empathetic punk rock energy & so does his @OutcastPress #poetry a.co/d/8DIfm0x #chapbook #artbook #booklovers #illustration

Reminder of how cool @Austin_Davis17 is & how his latest book deserves all the stars. ✨ a.co/d/cZyR5Kp @OutcastPress

An incredible effort by Austin Davis and AZ Hugs for the Homeless! After receiving a generous donation, the foundation has been working to fix up a trailer that will serve as a temporary solution for families in need of shelter. abc15.com/news/local-new…

Our friend Jen just reached out in need of shelter for her & her 2 kiddos. I’ll be working with Jen tomorrow on making a pathway to shelter, but tonight we want to make sure she & the kids stay safe. If you’d like to donate to our motel fund, info below! Hugs ❤️ Venmo: azhugs

My friends and I used to kick it at the parks for hours. Miss that shit. Nowadays it feels like everyone is just looking for somewhere that might be safe for a bit. @KTAR923 omny.fm/shows/ktar-rep…

New programs in the City of Phoenix and other Valley-area cities have put overnight security at public parks. @Austin_Davis17 with @HugsAz says this can put people experiencing homelessness at a higher risk of death. For @KTAR923: omny.fm/shows/ktar-rep…

Photographer Eric Elmore hopped in the van with me on Wednesday & took pics throughout our travels. This 1st photo feels heavy. Someone in our street fam was hit by a train a few weeks back & died. A friend on the streets gave me this stuffed animal to give to the woman’s child

This week, we had the chance to celebrate the hard work of @CityofPhoenixAZ volunteers at the Impact Volunteer Awards. I was particularly proud to recognize Austin Davis and Eddie Chavez Calderon who provide lifesaving heat relief through their mobile cooling van.
