On September 17, the Alamo will celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month with Tejanos At The Alamo, a gathering honoring Tejanos connected with the site's history. Come to the Shrine of Texas Liberty to learn more about these early settlers, 1836 Alamo Defenders such as Toribio Losoya, and other notable figures such as Juan Seguin, Adina De Zavala, and more. During the event, you will hear about how these important Tejano figures in San Antonio's history significantly impacted the community through living history demonstrations, live performances, and descendant associations.

Palenque Group, owners of Taco Palenque and Palenque Grill at La Cantera, are generously donating lunch for our hard-working event volunteers. We are so thankful for their support!
