A few days after a new mural sprung up at 1802 S. Flores St., CultureMap and Frost Bank popped in to help San Antonians celebrate it.

The colorful Opt For Optimism mural, by the popular street art duo Los Otros, is another inspirational aspect of Frost Bank's new campaign, which focuses on spreading generosity around the community. As onlookers posed for pics, CultureMap handed out tickets to Alamo Drafthouse, the Aztec Theatre, and bags of Live Love Pop popcorn.

"Optimism is choosing that you are going to take all the negativity in the world and make it into something beautiful for yourself and your loved ones," said one visitor.

For the next six months, you can visit the mural and take your own picture — be sure to tag it with #optforoptimism on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter.
