Austin’s Parks and Recreation Department is gearing up for a special community celebration this summer. The City of Austin has announced that the I Am Parks and Recreation exhibit will open on July 13, shining a spotlight on the people who make Austin’s parks system so beloved.

The exhibit, announced by the City of Austin, promises to honor the staff, volunteers, and community members who bring Austin’s parks, pools, trails, and recreation centers to life every day. It’s a fitting tribute to the dedicated individuals behind one of the city’s most treasured public resources.

Austin’s Parks and Recreation Department serves residents across the city, maintaining hundreds of parks and green spaces, aquatic facilities, and community programs that keep Austinites active and connected year-round. The I Am Parks and Recreation exhibit offers a chance for the broader community to recognize and celebrate the human side of that mission.

Mark your calendars for July 13 and watch for more details from the City of Austin on where the exhibit will be hosted and how you can take part in honoring the people who keep Austin’s parks thriving.
