CultureMap Create
Jun 19, 2017 | 2:00 pm

220 Lakeview Dr.
Sunrise Beach, TX 78643

Neighborhood: Sunrise Beach Village
Style: Traditional
Square footage: 3,347
Beds: 4
Baths: 3 full, 1 partial
Price: $1,875,000

The lowdown: When a home's design is equal to its jaw-dropping surroundings, you know you've found something special. This modern lakehouse, just 90 minutes from San Antonio in the Highland Lakes area of the Texas Hill Country, architecturally plays to its 258 feet of open waterfront of Lake LBJ. Rich, warm wood and beautiful blue hues of the elegant interior complement the soothing palette of the lake, while flowing seamlessly out to the tranquil pool, patio, and balcony areas that lead to open waterfront. A thoughtfully placed double stall boat house does not obstruct the views.

Wurst Week

Beat the crowds for a weekday jaunt through Wurstfest

If you can't relax with some sausages, when can you relax? Wurstfest doesn't have to be a weekend marathon.

San Antonians could stop by their favorite after-work haunts for happy hour this week, but New Braunfels, a relatively short drive away, can offer a lot more.

Wurstfest is in full swing again, coming out of its first weekend of 2022 festivities. This year’s fest runs from November 4-13, spreading that massive population influx across two weekends, and shorter days in between. Sweetening the pot, admission is free from Monday to Thursday.

Realistically, although the German food is at least half the draw, Wurstfest could be called Bierfest with the sheer volume of beers it serves. And they’re not expecting too many visitors drinking before business hours end in the rather quaint New Braunfels. So, Wurstfest starts at 5 pm on weekdays, but the five hours it’s open (ending at 10 pm) offer plenty of ways to pass the time.

All weekdays start with live music at 5:30 pm on all five stages across the old German grounds. (For those who haven’t visited, this is basically a theme park: visitors wander through timber framed beer halls, past many, many concession stands, down the Comal River to a fairground, all without stepping out of Germany, it seems.) From those opening sets, there’s near-constant music on three of the stages.

Most of the entertainment comes from live music and the novelty of wandering around amongst the lederhosen and dirndls. (Those drinking less than friends should strongly consider bringing a book — this is from experience.) But there is some light programming every day to break up the drinking and dancing, especially for visitors with kids.

Monday promises a science show and masskrugstemmen (beer holding) contest. On Tuesday, more beers are held and Rapunzel and Flynn Rider make an appearance. Wednesday brings, you guessed it, more beer holding, and a magic show. On Thursday, kids can hear some storytelling, and Friday, Veteran’s Day, honors veterans with a salute. Following crowds will also bring visitors to shopping, sausage-making demonstrations, and children’s fair rides.

Perhaps needless to say, the food is legitimately excellent; this is, at its heart, a culinary event, and serves more than standard fried fair foods. Obviously, sausage is a great choice, but there are potatoes, gravy, pickles, and sauerkraut to go around. Returning revelers are thrilled to share their best recommendations for the food and imported beers. Pacing yourself, three to five hours is a very reasonable stretch for trying as much as possible and returning to old favorites.

Wurstfest tickets (free Monday to Thursday, $18 online for the weekend) are available now at wurstfest.com, along with more information and entertainment schedules.

Native American Heritage Month

San Antonio museum celebrates Native American Heritage Month with free, family-friendly event

Briscoe Western Art Museum presents Yanaguana Indian Arts Festival

The Briscoe Western Art Museum hosts its Yanaguana Indian Arts Festival on November 19.

November is Native American Heritage Month, and the Briscoe Western Art Museum is inviting San Antonio families to celebrate at its free annual Yanaguana Indian Arts Festival. Taking place on Saturday, November 19, from 10 am to 5 pm, the colorful event highlights the vibrant, artistic traditions of Native American communities and celebrates the impact Native Americans had in shaping the West.

Named in honor of the Payaya people who were indigenous to the San Antonio area, “Yanaguana” was the word used to describe what is now known as the San Antonio River. The Briscoe has hosted the annual festival since the museum first opened in the beautifully restored 1930s San Antonio Public Library in 2013.

Featuring storytelling, artist demonstrations, pottery and carving, the free event includes admission to the museum, which strives to preserve and present the art, history, and culture of the American West in each of its exhibitions and educational programs. This year's event will feature two drum circles with Pow Wow-style dancing, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

United San Antonio Pow Wow, Inc., will start the event with a special spiritual blessing, joined by Enemy Horse Drumming for a Pow Wow-style drum circle to kick off the day. Inviting event attendees to join, the drum circle will explain common pow wow dance styles and the afternoon installment will feature the Great Promise Dancers.

Native American-inspired cuisine will help fuel the day's activities, including items from REZR’vation Only, a food truck owned and operated by a registered member of the Navajo Nation. In addition to the drum circles, the event will feature workshops and lectures celebrating traditional and contemporary Native American culture, with highlights including:

  • Live music by Native American artists, including flute player Tim Blueflint Ramel. An enrolled member of the Bad River Band of the Lake Superior Chippewa, a federally recognized American Indian Tribe, Blueflint has opened for and shared the stage with Grammy Award Winner Mary Youngblood and a wide variety of artists.
  • Stories from Amy Bluemel, Chickasaw storyteller and great-granddaughter of Eastman Kaney, an original Dawes Commission enrollee. Through elaborate storytelling, Bluemel shares the customs of Chickasaw and other southeastern tribes.
  • Ledger art with artist George Curtis Levi, showcasing how ledger art captures a moment in time. Originating amongst the Cheyenne in the late 1840s, ledger art utilized pages of repurposed record books to depict everyday life. A member of the Southern Cheyenne tribe in Oklahoma, Levi also has ties to the Arapaho and Oglala Lakota communities.
  • Pottery making with artist Jereldine Redcorn showcasing Caddo pottery, an art form she single-handedly revived. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Redcorn’s father was Caddo and her mother was Potawatomi. In 2009, First Lady Michelle Obama selected one of her pieces to decorate the Oval Office.
  • Kachina carving with Kevin Horace Quannie, a Hopi/Navajo contemporary artist. Living on the Hopi reservation, Quannie specializes in carving contemporary kachina dolls using cottonwood roots.
  • Crafts and demonstrations include making your own drum, creating a community weaving basket, paper bead necklaces, pottery making, loom weaving, wood carving, and leather stamping.
Make the most of free museum admission by exploring the Briscoe's 14 galleries, including its fall exhibition, Thomas D. Mangelsen - A Life In The Wild, which features 40 of the renowned nature photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen’s most resonant wildlife and landscape photographs of the West. Open to the public through January 29, 2023, the exhibit takes viewers on a journey across the West and around the globe through the lens of one of the most prolific nature photographers of our time.
