Cultural Affairs

For a city of under 100,000 population, San Angelo provides a high level of cultural events and activities. Texas theatre began in San Angelo - the San Angelo Civic Theater is the oldest community-based theater group in Texas. Annual performances include comedy, musicals, and drama. Angelo State University is another excellent source for both stage and dinner theater performances. The San Angelo Symphony performs 8 times during the year, and is headquartered in the restored City Auditorium.

The Museum of Fine Arts, located on the river downtown San Angelo, provides an outstanding venue for the visual arts and annually sponsors the National Ceramic Arts Competition. The Cultural Affairs Council offers many attractive and exciting entertainment options, such as the Cactus Jazz & Blues Festival and the Texas Wine & Food Festival.
