Saturday night, Nicky Diamonds and the Deep Cuts take the The Lonesome Rose stage on their Fare Thee Well Tour. Catch this talented San Antonio singer-songwriter before he relocates to Nashville.
Sunday afternoon polo at Brackenridge Park? But of course, darlings. Think of the sport of polo as croquet on horseback. To celebrate a bygone era in the park’s history, dress snazzily and wear a special fascinator.
Chica Verde holds its Spring Flea market on Sunday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Furniture, art, plants, glassware, jewelry, vintage clothing, pottery, textiles and lots, lots more.
On Sunday at 5 p.m., Joaquín Zihuatanejo stops in at The Dakota East Side Ice House to read from his new book Occupy Whitness and chat with new San Antonio poet laureate Eddie Vega. Zihuatanejo won a World Poetry Slam in 2008.
