Paradise Canyon on the Medina River offers an abundant array of fishing, boating, camping, and a rustic lodge in a scenic canyon featuring a close walk with nature teeming with ample wildlife. This amazing canyon offers a little place of heaven where some have referred to it as "God's Swimmin' Hole." Lean back in your floating inner tube, close your eyes against the blue sky as the brilliant sun warms your face, and let your back and legs be refreshed in the cool revitalizing waters.

Connect with The Public in the Public, where performers venture out into the city to connect with the people. Link up with the Resident Artists, where actors, playwrights, and producers in the theater community unite to invest in local theater artists and talent.

Take part in a dynamic experience as you learn about stars, planets, black holes, and distant galaxies at the Planetarium - The Scobee Education Center at San Antonio College. Every Friday night, the planetarium opens to the public, so they get a chance to stargaze and see digitally-created images of stars, planets, and galaxies fill the night sky. Housed atop the iconic blue Charles E. Cheever, Jr. Star Tower, the Scalan Observatory houses a 10-inch refractor telescope and features a 360-degree rotating dome and panel that opens 90 degrees, enabling stargazing in any direction.
