Property Highlights

The City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department is moving the Dougherty Arts Center (DAC) out of the its current aging location and into a newly envisioned building that will be constructed on Butler Shores Park (the site). Butler Shores Park currently has ballfields, and parking. It is near Town Lake and Austin's hike & bike trail.
The DAC offers arts experiences for a broad audience through its three main components: The Dougherty Theater, Julia C. Butridge Gallery and the Dougherty Arts School. The building currently housing DAC is beyond repair. It was established as a temporary structure meant to be razed in the 1970s but was adopted as a permanent home that has outlived its viability.
PARD will provide a new facility to continue to provide arts center services in a safe, healthy and sustainable environment. This project follows on the heels of the 2018 community engagement process and City Council direction in spring 2019. It is expected construction of the new DAC will be completed in 2024
