The shops at La Villita Historic Arts Village have

the tastes of San Antonio, and enjoy live music at
this monthly event. Take a stroll through La Villita
and find unique artwork and gifts made by local

who produce their own crafts.
La Villita is the city’s premiere art village for local
art and crafts, featuring fine art, jewelry, clothing,
pottery, bonsai and Mexican handicrafts, among
other unique items. La Villita has a history as old
as San Antonio, from its beginnings during the
time of the Alamo, through the 19th century with
the growth of downtown San Antonio, to the
resurrection of the area by Mayor Maury Maverick, who acted to preserve the area as a part of San Antonio’s colorful and diverse history. Come out and enjoy an evening under the stars, with La Villita First Friday Art Walk!
