Eeyore’s Birthday Party

An Austin original powered by volunteers that’s been going since the days of peace and love, this celebration in honor of Winnie-the-Pooh’s melancholy mate is operated by Friends of the Forest Foundation and benefits local nonprofits such as Kind Clinic, Austin Bat Refuge, Latinitas, KOOP Radio, and many others. Pease Park becomes a place for kids and grownups to let down their hair and join a drum circle, catch live music, get their faces painted, and more. Pro tip: Grab a free shuttle to the park from the Capitol area – they even let well-behaved furry friends hop on. – Kat McNevins
