Take a stroll through King William or book a tour of grand mansions that date back to the late 19th century. Stop by the Guenther House, built-in 1876, for traditional breakfast and brunch served up in a Victorian parlor. A new must-see in the arts district is the crimson-hued Ruby City, which presents works from the Linda Pace Foundation Collection of more than 900 artworks. The museum was designed by renowned architect Sir David Adjaye. Two hidden gem galleries are Blue Star Contemporary, the first and longest-running nonprofit space for contemporary art in the city, and the San Antonio Art League & Museum, housing over 600 works in its permanent collection. Don’t miss the Blue Star Arts Complex in Southtown – a 160,000-square-foot collection of studios, art galleries, retailers, bars, and eateries, including a microbrewery. Every First Friday, catch the area’s monthly nighttime street festival for unique art finds. On Second Saturday, meet the artists at local galleries and grab a gift from a local vendor. These events are free and family-friendly while allowing the discovery of unique art finds. For food and drinks, locals love Rosario’s ceviche and margaritas, La Frite for mussels and frites, Burgerteca for burgers that capture the taste of Mexico, and Bar 1919 for classic cocktails. Southown also boasts having the most micro-brewers in one area. In South Flores, explore Dorcol Distilling Co., an urban boutique craft distillery, and taste their signature spirit, Kinsman Rakia. Come explore what’s new.
