Happy New Year, friends and neighbors! We hope you’ve had a wonderful winter season. As we gear up for an exciting spring ahead, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible year we had at Patterson Park in 2023.

Looking back, we had some fantastic events that brought our community together!

The City of Austin successfully completed a two-year renovation of the Pharr Tennis Center, featuring the park’s latest art installation, Harmonic Strings. Public Works installed the new shade structure over the basketball court, the final component of a Neighborhood Partnering Program grant that FoPP applied for back in 2019.

None of these remarkable improvements would have been possible without the support of our friends, neighbors, and sponsors. Thank you all for helping Friends of Patterson Park serve our community! We are still looking to add another leader to our team, so if you’d like to get involved, please reach out! 

Stay tuned for more details about the upcoming spring events! We can’t wait to continue building memories and fostering community spirit in 2024 ❤️.
