The City of San Antonio's Department of Arts & Culture has opened a new exhibition titled 'Built on Legacy: Artists of San Antonio' at the Culture Commons Gallery. The show features 23 artists, both living and deceased, whose work in prints, sculpture, and installation represents the evolution of the city's art scene over the last fifty years.
The exhibition serves as a tribute to the foundational artists who shaped San Antonio's artistic identity and aims to highlight the enduring legacy of community and cultural pride. By connecting ancestors, elders, and the next generation, it underscores the importance of historical continuity in fostering a vibrant local art scene for the future.
