Dear Friends,

Jonathon and I are ecstatic and honored to be returning as co-chairs for the 25th annual Garden Party benefitting UMLAUF Sculpture Garden + Museum. This is a very special year, not only because it marks a milestone as the 25th Garden Party, but also because we are entering into an extremely exciting phase of property development and expansion as we aim to incorporate the UMLAUF house and studio with the museum grounds. It is crucial to have enormous support to realize this campaign, while simultaneously continuing to provide the numerous outreach programs and preservation of the renowned works and vision of UT professor and esteemed artist, Charles Umlauf.

Please join us in supporting this historic, prolific artist and his iconic Austin landmark to create a space for future generations to learn, explore and enjoy.

Proceeds from Garden Party benefit:

• the UMLAUF’s community programs, including free monthly Family Days, bi-monthly UMLAUF After Dark series, Museum Days and wellness programs.
• Artist exhibits and Insights where the public can meet the artist and learn about the inspiration behind their work.
• Youth programming including Camp UMLAUF, Shaping Space serving children in Title I schools throughout Austin, our annual free Fall Festival, StrawFest, where more than 1000 guests participate in fun activities with their families, and field trips to learn more about sculpture, art, nature, and the history of the UMLAUF family.
• Sustainability, preservation, and the future expansion of this local historic landmark, the UMLAUF Sculpture Garden + Museum.
