UMLAUF Sculpture Garden and Museum will unveil its Historic Preservation, Expansion and Unification Plan on Wednesday, May 29. What’s a Historic Preservation, Expansion and Unification Plan, you ask? According to a press release from the parks department, “The plan is the vital first step for the Austin art institution to improve access and expand use of the 5.86-acre sculpture garden, museum and grounds, while preserving and incorporating the adjacent 1.93-acre site that includes the historic home of Angeline and Charles Umlauf, their private sculpture garden, and the artist’s studio.” Specifically, the plan recommends strategies for preservation and more public access and programming in addition to finding a way to display more of the museum’s collection. The presentation of the plan will take place at the museum at 5:30 p.m.. The event is free and open to the public, who can RSVP to the event here.
