Places such as The Blue Star Contemporary Art Center, the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center, and the Carver Community Cultural Center have brought others into their communities and also sent many new local artist out into the world. Annual events that keep San Antonians busy year round include the Culinaria Wine and Arts Festival and Summer Art and Jazz Festival, the Stock Show and Rodeo, Fiesta San Antonio and the Texas Folklife Festival.
