The Final Performance of Cinderella
Today marks the final opportunity to witness the magic of Ballet San Antonio’s production of Cinderella. Performing at the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, this classic fairytale is brought to life through the stunning choreography of Conny Mathôt and the iconic score by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev. This production has been a highlight of the February arts season, offering a sophisticated yet accessible experience for theater-goers of all ages. If you haven't caught this performance yet, today’s matinee is your last chance to see the glass slipper find its rightful owner on the San Antonio stage.
Artisan Finds at the Pearl Makers Market
For those who prefer a more relaxed Sunday morning, the Pearl Makers Market is in full swing today from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the historic Pearl district. While Saturdays are typically reserved for farmers and ranchers, Sundays are dedicated to the region's talented artisans. You can browse a wide array of handmade goods, including intricate pottery, custom woodwork, leather goods, and culinary-inspired home decor. It is a fantastic opportunity to meet local creators and find unique, one-of-a-kind treasures while enjoying the atmosphere of one of the city's most vibrant neighborhood hubs.
Museum Highlights and Cultural Tours
The San Antonio Museum of Art (SAMA) is hosting several engaging exhibitions and guided tours today. Visitors can join the official Museum Highlights Tour, which offers a deep dive into the museum’s encyclopedic collection, ranging from ancient Greek and Roman antiquities to contemporary Texas art. Additionally, the museum is currently featuring a special tour titled "Off the Wall: Year of the Horse." This curated experience explores the symbolism of the horse across the Asian collection, celebrating Chinese New Year traditions and the rich cultural history behind these artifacts. The museum remains open until 5:00 p.m., providing a perfect afternoon of quiet reflection and education.
Community Fitness at Pearsall Park
If you prefer to spend your Sunday being active, the Couple Shuffle San Antonio is taking place at Pearsall Park. This community-focused event features timed 5K, 10K, and 15K routes, as well as a kid-friendly dash and an untimed one-mile walk. It is a great way to enjoy the unseasonably warm February weather while connecting with fellow San Antonians in a fitness-forward environment. The event emphasizes fun and community over intense competition, making it a staple for local meetup groups.
