Inspire your creative genius by experiencing life as an artist at the Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum. As an artist-centric, educational, forward-thinking, and inclusive institution, Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum has multiple complementary programs that any artist can join. Such as the Open Studios, a film series that goes behind the scenes at artists' studios, the Art Education Lap, which provides hands-on programming and educational content, and outreach events that include workshops, artist talks, panel discussions, and film screenings.

Grab your hat, put on your cowboy boots, and head out to the Tejas Rodeo Company, where the fun begins as soon as you arrive. This hidden gem provides a true taste of Texas and its authentic Western heritage. In addition to a live open pro-rodeo assembled every Saturday nine months out of the year, they have a steakhouse with an award-winning menu, authentic outdoor food and ice-cold drinks, a pavilion and stage for live music, and several horse clinics and special events throughout the year.

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.
