Any local who loves posing in front of the city’s wide variety of public art can now do so with more ease than ever.
The city’s Department of Arts & Culture knows how much locals love exploring art throughout the 2-1-0, so officials decided to compile a map of all of its public art pieces. Now, because the map is from the city department, it won’t include every mural or creative tagging you can find throughout the city, but it does include more than 600 pieces of art that are the product of the city’s efforts.

The Witte Museum plans to open its Te Amo Fiesta exhibit on April 15.Witte Museum
Traditionally in April, San Antonio is flashing their flower crowns and colorful outfits during the annual 11-day extravaganza known as Fiesta.
In 2020, the celebration was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic and then postponed to June 17-27 in 2021, leaving many locals feeling blue and missing all things Fiesta. Luckily, the Witte Museum has us covered with its Te Amo Fiesta exhibit.
From the parades to the glam gowns, Fiesta lovers can explore the new exhibit starting April 15, according to a news release. The museum, located at 3801 Broadway, examines the crown process and how to become part of the Fiesta royalty.
