For experienced and novice photographers alike, FOTOSEPTIEMBRE celebrates photography and photographic art every September. Started in San Antonio, FOTOSEPTIEMBRE showcases photography and photographic artwork from around the world. Exhibits are located not only in San Antonio but in cities around the country.
For a truly unforgettable experience, take your family to Lourdes Grotto & Tepeyac de San Antonio, where the Oblates of Mary Immaculate of the Southern U.S. Province is honored with a perfect replica of the shrine from Lourdes, France. The Grotto resembles the cave where the Blessed Mother appeared to St. Bernadette. Within the Grotto, a statue of Our Lady of Lourdes looks down upon Bernadette kneeling in prayer. Not only is this cave for devotion to the Patroness of the Americas, but the Tepeyac also honors the work of Oblate missionaries among Latino communities in the U.S., Mexico, and beyond.
Relish in a uniquely different performance space that has blossomed into a destination for people to come for theater, meet up with friends, have a drink, and enjoy live music at the Roxie Theatre Company. At the center of this immersive stage is a diamond of a venue, a complete flashback in time with a French circus vaudeville theme and flare beautifully constructed from aged bricks, marble, glass windows, and an elegantly flowing drop curtain. Around the sideshow venue from the past, you are invited to experience their interactive showroom connecting you once again with humanity both virtually online and back onstage.
