Pease Park Conservancy

About

Pease Park Conservancy works in partnership with the City of Austin to set the standard for world-class park management – emphasizing environmental excellence – to improve and care for this treasured green space for the enjoyment of all.

Our Mission:

Pease Park Conservancy celebrates the diverse ecology and history that make Austin’s first public park valuable and unique. The Conservancy works to restore, enhance and maintain this 84-acre public green space for the sustainable use and enjoyment of all.

Our Vision:

Pease Park will be known as an accessible urban green space for all, where land stewardship, environmental innovation and inclusive programming embrace the community's history and inspire its future.

The Conservancy's Priorities in Pease Park:

Pease Park Conservancy and the City of Austin have worked closely together to sustain and enhance the 84 acres of Pease Park beginning with the development of the Pease Park Vision Plan in 2014.

In accordance with the first phase of the Vision Plan, the Conservancy fundraised for and invested $10 million in the renovation of Kingsbury Commons, the southernmost 7 acres of the park. Upon completion of that project, Pease Park Conservancy is now responsible for Operations, Maintenance, and Programming within Kingsbury Commons according to the signed Park Operations and Maintenance Agreement (POMA).
