American Indian Heritage Month: Painting with DiZurita

Celebrate American Indian Heritage Month at the Briscoe!

This month we celebrate the local American Indian cultures that called San Antonio home. The name given to the life-giving river is Yanaguana which we call the San Antonio River today. Folklore has long told of a blue hole where a jaguar lived and one day a bird flew into the hole looking for water. The jaguar startled the bird and as the bird flew out of the blue hole drops fell down to create the river they named Yanaguana – meaning spirit waters.

Gio DiZurita will lead you through your creative journey!

This event is for guests 21+ with complimentary beer, wine, and light bites.

Tickets are one per person and include all materials: 11 x 14 canvas, acrylic paints, and brushes.

Doors open at 6:00 PM | Painting starts at 6:30 to 8:30 PM
