Shift A: MLK Jr. Donation Drive at Pease Park

In honor of Martin Luther King Day, Pease Park Conservancy is hosting a donation drive for the Austin community!

All ages are welcome; youth under 16 years of age must have adult supervision.

Please note that all participants are required to complete the registration. To register your child, please add them as a dependent as you register yourself.

🌳 What to Expect
Volunteers will help unload donations from people's vehicles, transport them to the Tudor Cottage and Terrace, and sort items.

🥾 What to Bring and Wear
Please bring water in a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated, and wear comfortable, weather-appropriate shoes and clothing that you do not mind getting dirty.

🚘 Parking Information & Meeting Location
We highly encourage alternative modes of transportation such as walking, biking, public transportation, carpooling, or ridesharing when visiting Pease Park.

If you drive there is a small parking lot in Kingsbury Commons (1100 Kingsbury Street) and available street parking along Parkway. Additional FREE parking can be found at the Austin Recreation Center parking lot (1301 Shoal Creek Blvd), which connects to Pease Park via a short walk along the Shoal Creek Trail.

Once you arrive, please meet a PPC staff member at the Tudor Cottage. This is the small brick building at the top of the hill that looks over the playground in Kingsbury Commons.

A note about Pease Park Conservancy's events:
If you sign up, please make every effort to show up. Our events are free, so all of our community members can attend. But we plan our events to be meaningful for the number of people who register to be there, so please make every effort to attend if you have registered. We understand things come up from time to time, but if you have registered, we look forward to having you there! Thank you!
