It’s My Park Day volunteer registration is OPEN!

On Saturday, November 7th, join APF and fellow park lovers for a day of volunteer projects and community building in neighborhood parks around Austin.💚

All projects are led by community members to encourage neighbors to come out, lend a hand and connect with fellow park lovers from all walks of life. This is a day many look forward to all year as we celebrate the people and parks that make Austin special!

It’s World Gratitude Day and we’re GRATEFUL for all of you!!!

From People of the Parks to volunteers and ambassadors to donors and sponsors - we could not do this amazing work without YOU.

As Party for the Parks nears, we want to take a moment to thank our Metro Park and Presenting Sponsor, Fifth Third Bank, along with our District Park sponsors: Austin City Limits Music Festival (ACL), C3 Presents, FBR Management LLC, Tito's Handmade Vodka and Wells Fargo.

We can’t wait to join our fellow park lovers (and music fanatics) for an evening of revelry, rhythm and giving back - nestled in the heart of Zilker Park on the Austin City Limits Music Festival grounds in support of Austin Parks Foundation.

Headlining the evening: Cold War Kids, performing an exclusive set just for you🎶

Grand Meadow Neighborhood Park📍

Austin Parks Foundation along with Austin Parks and Recreation Department and Friends of Grand Meadow Park celebrated the completion of Phase I improvements this morning! This nearly 10-acre undeveloped property in southeast Austin has been transformed into a welcoming neighborhood park with natural surface trails, accessible concrete walkways, a play area, open play fields, and a pavilion equipped with picnic tables and lighting.

Grand Meadow is one example of what APF's Park Design services make possible. Through the program, APF gives Adopt-A-Park groups access to design resources at every scale, from an on-site consultation to full long-range planning, in coordination with APR.
