The San Antonio Museum of Art (SAMA) announced yesterday that they’ll be painting three new murals across the city this summer. The effort is backed by a $20,000 Art Bridges Grant and is in collaboration with San Anto Cultural Arts and the San Antonio African American Community Archive & Museum.
The cultural project is set to be completed this August, and will be developed by local artists Sandra Gonzalez, Victor Zarazua and Suzy González. The participating muralists will lay paint at East Side staple Tony G’s Soulfood, the West Side’s Wicho’s Deli and the San Antonio Museum of Art respectively. Notably, the final strokes of each mural desire a crucial co-sign from the represented communities.
