Attendees will gain insights from research and case studies while diving into local data and real-world conservation efforts happening right here in the San Antonio region. From community-driven initiatives to large-scale climate mitigation at a local military base, this conference offers a critical look at the challenges and solutions shaping our urban forest.
In collaboration with the Alamo Forest Partnership, Bexar Branches Alliance is excited to announce the 4th Annual Regional Urban Forestry Conference. Our primary objective for this event is to unite individuals from across Bexar County to engage in discussions regarding the present condition and the future prospects of our urban forest. The proceeds generated from this conference will go toward supporting Bexar Branches Alliance Programming initiatives, which encompass native tree planting projects, tree maintenance and resilience initiatives, as well as educational programs aimed at connecting our community with our urban forest.
The show opens March 22, 2026 through May 27, 2026, and presents creative pinhole portraits of San Antonio Artist immersed in their artform.
The opening exhibit of Eric O’Connell’s pinhole photography invites viewers into a living moment where time, movement, and memory converge. Through long exposures that compress minutes into a single frame, O’Connell reveals portraits that are both sharp and softly obscured, capturing not just a subject’s image but the interaction, motion, and atmosphere surrounding them.
Ghostly blurs, shifting shadows, and layered spaces create a sense of transparency and connection, allowing creativity, place, and presence to merge into one unified view. This exhibit asks audiences to slow down and consider the fleeting, often overlooked relationships between time, the artist, and the world they inhabit.
As the Edwards Aquifer Authority (EAA) celebrates 30 years of stewardship on June 28th, we invite residents, students, businesses, and organizations from Atascosa, Bexar, Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe, Hays, Medina, and Uvalde counties to help us look to the future by showcasing how you're managing the drought.
