PHIL HARDBERGER PARK CONSERVANCY & ALAMO AREA MASTER NATURALISTS A Resource Guide to Phil Hardberger Park and the Oak Loop Trail EDUCATE RECREATE RENEW 8400 NW Military 210-207-3284 Entrance to the Oak Loop Trail as photographed by Barbara Schmidt in November 2011. Foreward Table of Contents 1 PHIL HARDBERGER PARK CONSERVANCY & ALAMO AREA MASTER NATURALISTS FOREWARD ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The production of this Resource Guide to the Oak Loop Trail is a joint project of the Alamo Area Master Naturalist Leader- ship Team for the Fourth Saturday Events in Phil Hardberger Park , the Phil Hardberger Park Conservancy, and the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club Two key individuals with the Alamo Area Master Naturalists, Wendy Thornton, chair of the team, and Liz Robbins, presi- dent of the local chapter, were instrumental in leading, encouraging, supporting, and directing the effort. A large group of Master Naturalists was involved in the writing and editing process. I want to be sure to thank those who wrote multiple talking points; these contributors are Wendy Leonard, Jessica Leslie, and Christine Westerman. While many persons contributed to the editing, Jessica Leslie and Ron Tullius helped me in each picking up a third of the points to review editorial comments and finalize the pieces. But then, Ron Tullius did a superb job of re-editing the entire document. Ron improved tremendously the quality of the final product by catching so many spelling and grammar errors and suggesting many small improvements. The quality of the entire work was immeasurably enhanced by Ron’s careful work. Thank you so much, Ron.

Luminaria 2018, Will Perform the Hero’S Journey in the Mexican Cultural Institute for Luminaria 2018
Visual Arts Performance Dance | Music Literary Luminaria’s 2018 Contemporary Arts Festival offers much to celebrate! As San Antonio’s only multi-arts festival, we are a connecting force between the many art forms, genres and practices of an urban city. Supported by the City of San Antonio’s Department of Arts & Culture and a network of philanthropy, Luminaria celebrates 11 years of showcasing ART to ALL for FREE. As an independent non-profit organization, the magic of Luminaria is made possible by artists, curators, and organizations working together. For the first time, artist awardees of grants from both the Artist Foundation of San Antonio (AFSA) and the National Association of Latino Arts & Culture (NALAC) were invited to showcase their works at the festival. Funded by AFSA and NALAC, these Texas artists create new works in performance, visual, music and literary arts. Luminaria provides the production and marketing support to showcase the cutting edge results. In a continuation of partnerships, Luminaria worked with Contemporary Art Month (a San Antonio stalwart of contemporary visual art held every July) and with the Southern Fried Poetry Slam (a national spoken word contest that was held in our city this past June). From these organizations, artists were invited to bring their award-winning work to the festival. Additional new partnerships with the Mexican CURATORS Consulate and the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park give tribute to San Antonio’s history Carrie Brown | Alana Coates | Lindsay Compton | Agosto Cuellar | Adriana Flores | Mark McCoin and cultural relations, with two special artistic contributions.
