Alamo City Moms is happy to partner with the UTSA Institute of Texan Cultures to promote the 2020 Asian Festival. This is a sponsored post.
The 2020 Asian Festival brings together San Antonio’s many diverse Asian communities, giving festival attendees a glimpse into authentic Asian culture and cuisine without the need for a passport and jet-lag.
On Saturday, February 1st from 10-5, the UTSA Institute of Texan Cultures grounds are filled with the sounds of cultural music, the smells of authentic foods from more than 15 cultures and a myriad of different performances and displays. People of all ages celebrate the Lunar New Year and the many rich cultures of Asia.
With represented cultures spanning the globe from China, to the Indian Sub-continent, and the island nations of the Pacific, this is an incredible opportunity to learn or try something new and to revel in the rich traditions of countries thousands of miles away in one spot.
The Festival features two stages, a martial arts demonstration area, children’s hands-on crafting area, anime activities, bonsai and ikebana displays, mahjong table and more. Click here for a guide to performances and food offerings at this year’s festival.
