Pickfair Community Center is nestled between the beautiful Spicewood on Bull Creek & Spicewood Estates neighborhoods off of HWY 183-N & Anderson Mill Road. The facility was built in 1988 and housed the Northwest Travis County Municipal Utility District #2 Fire Station and Meeting Room until January 1998.

The Austin Fire Department temporarily occupied the site while a new AFD facility on Anderson Mill Road was under construction. Upon completion of the COA-AFD station, the Austin Parks and Recreation Department and the local community saw the need for recreation services in the area and began developing and promoting children’s summer and after school activities as satellite programs of Northwest Recreation Center.

Pickfair Community Center opened its doors as a City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department Summer Playground Program site in June 2000. Today, the center provides a variety of recreational and leisure activities for the far northwest Austin community, utilizing the old fire department garage as a "micro-gym" and an additional room as activity and meeting spaces. Programs range from Toddler Programs, School Age Summer and After School Programs, Adult and Family Programs, and is pleased to have tennisbuddys. The Center is also available to rent for family celebrations, birthday parties, meetings, etc.


Pickfair Community Center is adjacent to Pickfair Park which spreads over one acre and has two small pavilions with picnic tables as well as two playscapes for tots and older children. The park and community center are connected by a footbridge over a small portion of Bull Creek and overlooks part of the Bull Creek Greenbelt & preserve.
