WHAT IS THE AUSTIN ENHANCEMENT GROUP?

AEG is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the community by facilitating family-friendly events, entertainment, and/or celebrations for all citizens of Austin and the surrounding areas.

AEG was first formed when Austin's 4th of July celebration needed a group to take over the planning and organization. The original Board Members founded AEG because they loved the Freedom Festival and couldn't imagine a 4th of July without our community's long-standing celebration.

AEG is comprised of an all-volunteer Board and Committee who give their time, talents, and resources to fund raise, plan, organize and execute activities and entertainment for Austin's 4th of July Freedom Festival, as well as the Hometown Christmas event.

Certain functions of the city-wide celebration are wholly organized by other groups; for example:

Parade: Austin Area Chamber of Commerce

Fireworks: City of Austin

Mini Piggy: YMCA

Fly-in Breakfast: Lions

However, the Austin Enhancement Group was intentionally established as an umbrella organization so that it was positioned to plan additional events as the community’s needs evolve. Be a part of what's next for our community!
