First of all, I have to say that UTSA has the coolest and nicest President ever! And his wife, Dr. Harriett Romo is so friendly! We've had the opportunity to meet them at a few tailgating events where they are just hanging out amongst UTSA friends and alumni.
You can tell they love the university and San Antonio, which is why it doesn't surprise me that they are sharing their personal collection of art with the city at the McNay Art Museum.
Here is the info for next Sunday's Comunidad y Cultura event:
McNay Art Museum
6000 North New Braunfels, San Antonio, TX 78209
