Take a selfie in front of the new Pearl district mural
Stop by the newest artistic addition to the Pearl for an optimistic message and a selfie. The latest project in Frost Bank’s Opt for Optimism campaign, in partnership with CultureMap, is a mural by street artist duo Los Otros. Artists Shek Vega and Nik Soupè are creating an inspiring piece of art at 125 W. Grayson St., on the West Clay block wall.
Participate in the virtual Fiesta de los Spurs Run
The Fiesta de los Spurs Run is going virtual this spring. On Saturday, walk, run, or bike 2.6 miles, all while donning silver and black or fun Fiesta attire (and observing social distancing measures, of course). The Spurs Give nonprofit encourages participants to use the hashtag #AtHomeFiesta or tag @SpursGive on social media to be entered to win free entry into the run, which has been rescheduled for November 14.

Tune into the Hello Walls virtual concert series
Finish off the weekend with live tunes brought to your device courtesy of Luck Productions. Each week, Hello Walls' selected host artist will curate a virtual open mic session featuring their favorite musicians — all of whom will perform from their respective isolated locations. Viewers can also call in to speak to the host for a unique live music experience. Stream the show live on Sunday night at 8 pm.
Order a Fiesta food and drink kit to-go or join in on virtual Fiesta de Los Spurs run on Saturday.
