River Museum Reach Grand Opening

Saturday May 30th is the Grand Opening of the Museum Reach of the San Antonio River, extending the Riverwalk north.



Museum Reach Grand Opening: 10 AM
Mayor Phil Hardberger and other dignitaries will take the first ride through the new Lock and Dam - an engineering feat made possible by the project partners: San Antonio River Authority, Bexar County, City of San Antonio, San Antonio River Foundation and the River Oversight Committee.
The Lock and Dam will carry barges and their passengers to previously unnavigable portions of the river, past the San Antonio Museum of Art and all the way to the Pearl Complex.

Artist Talk: 1 – 3 PM
A lively and insightful panel discussion among the eight Museum Reach artists, hosted by the San Antonio Museum of Art. Museum admission is half price; seating is limited.

River Revel: 7 PM – Midnight
A glitteringly fun gala in support of the San Antonio River Foundation will be held at the Pearl Stable. Join us for a night of live music, entertainment, fine cuisine, and delightful libations! Limited seating available.
