Pride Picnic, Y’all!


On Saturday, June 28, we’re partnering with Pease Park for Pride Picnic—a day of abundant sunshine, community vibes and a delightfully queer celebration of the summer solstice—at Austin’s first and oldest pubic park.



10 AM to 2 PM. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. NO RSVP REQUIRED.
Bring your blanket, families, friends and lovers. Support more than 30+ LGBTQ-owned businesses at the pop-up. Pack a lunch or grab food and beer when you arrive. It’s up to you!

Family-friendly. Dog-friendly. Human-friendly.



Find the full lineup of pop-up vendors, workshops, DJs, and community surprises here.

MEET THE PRODUCERS
Homegrown in Austin, Future Front is an award-winning cultural space and public exhibition series—with women and LGBTQ+ creatives at the front.
As a 501c3 arts and culture nonprofit, we produce two annual community-led exhibitions, The Front Market and The Front Festival, platforming independent artists and creatives across disciplines in Texas. Beyond our flagship exhibitions, we host seasonal shows and workshops at our creative space in East Austin, welcoming 20,000+ visitors per year.

Through these programs and a diverse network of partnerships, we invite the public (including you) to dream of a future where local art and creativity thrive in Texas—where we see ourselves and our cultures reflected in our communities.

Pease Park 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. Learn more here.
