Our Mission

Since 1962, Austin PBS has been a part of Central Texas, delivering programs that educate, entertain, and inspire. As the only locally-owned and operated nonprofit television station in Central Texas, Austin PBS uses its unique position to serve as a bridge to the community and provide essential services to more than 20 counties and 3 million residents across the region.

Austin PBS is also the home of Austin City Limits, the longest running music television show in history, has been awarded the National Medal of the Arts and earned a rare institutional Peabody Award. This award-winning music series would not exist without the music makers, fans, and community of supporters who invest in Austin PBS’s mission.
