In the Space

This is where nonprofit programming for the Austin community comes to life.

Person in Austin Community Space

Welcome to Austin’s Google.org nonprofit space

We’re committed to being good neighbors to the Austin community. Our new venue at Sail Tower is designed to empower local nonprofits and community members.

It offers Austin metro area nonprofits a fully equipped, free venue for community workshops, classes, meetings, and events. With capacity for up to 143 people—plus amenities like high-speed Wi-Fi and A/V capabilities—this versatile space can support a variety of gatherings.

Local vibrancy

Local artist Lisandra Ramos brings the space to life with a large mural representing Austin’s culture of music, nature, and historical landmarks.

Over the years, Austin's Googler community programs have facilitated giving and volunteering campaigns for the community and help connect local organizations to Google training, products, and support.

We’re excited to continue to support community learning, creativity, and connection in the heart of Austin.
