Look Here! Public Art is Cropping Up

Stroll through the downtown and you'll encounter several murals depicting scenes from our past with faces from the now.

We're a City... we're a community

Our City is filled with citizens who give back, pay it forward and work diligently to make this a City to call home.

Get your water wings!

Shove off from the kayak docks at James E. Grey Preserve, 80 acres of Old Florida nature, and make your way out to see the old stilt houses in the Gulf of Mexico.

Events, events, events

Sims Park is a hub for community events with everything from free movies in the park to big multi-day festivals. Bike Fest, Pasco EcoFest, Chasco Fiesta, Cotee River Seafood Festival, Holiday Boat and Street Parades....there is something happening here all year round.

Discover New Port Richey

New Port Richey is a City with many "best kept secrets". We'll help you discover them all!
