WHAT: A captivating large-scale immersive art experience, Otherwild, will transform the San Antonio Botanical Garden this spring into a vibrant world where wonder takes root and the sky comes alive.

The King William Association Cultural Arts Committee sponsors an exhibit of Adam Smo’s Neon and Blown Glass. Adam began his career with glass in 2012 without any plan as to what he was going to do. At first, he did a lot of production glass for other companies as well as his own production. This resulted in a good decade of blowing glass daily.
Around 2018, he began to learn and experiment with plasma art which led him to getting his foot in the door with neon. He pursued learning neon sign making and spent several years learning and practicing neon signs. He was able to take on more jobs as well as make his own artwork. Now he takes a small responsibility for helping to keep both the history and future of neon alive.

The exhibit will be on display through August 6, 2026. M-Th 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Explore MACRI’s new traveling exhibit, You Have the Right: Mexican Americans and Due Process of the Law.

This exhibit explores three court cases involving Mexican Americans and Mexican-perceived individuals that have been significant to the interpretation of the Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendments and shaped interpretation of due process of the law in the United States: Miranda v. Arizona (1966), United States v. Brignoni-Ponce (1975), and Chavez v. Martinez (2003).

The verdict in these cases, whose plaintiffs were Mexican American and Latino individuals, affect all Americans today. Miranda v. Arizona (1966) secured what we now call our “Miranda rights;” United States v. Brignoni-Ponce (1975) prohibited law enforcement from stopping and questioning someone on the basis of their appearance; and Chavez v. Martinez (2003) marked a rollback in protections from coercive questioning from authorities.

The three moments featured in this exhibit remind us that the interpretation of constitutional amendments is constantly debated in courts at all levels of government, and can result in expansions and contractions of civil rights. The legal struggle for civil rights is continuous, and rarely a linear progression.

The exhibit will be on display from Monday, April 27, 2026 through Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

The exhibit gallery is open Monday through Friday, 10 AM—NOON and 1 – 4 PM, or by appointment.

MACRI’s programs are funded in part by the City of San Antonio Department of Arts & Culture, Bexar County, the Mellon Foundation, the John L. Santikos Charitable Foundation Fund of the San Antonio Area Foundation, Spurs Give, and individual donors like you! Gracias!
