ADULTS WANT TO HAVE FUN TOO
Kids aren’t the only ones to enjoy the new DoSeum on Broadway. No sirree! There’s an adult-only party (as in must be 21 years old) in the planning for you too. Sip an adult beverage, tour the museum and interact with custom pop-ups in the six major exhibit halls. Go to Facebook for updates and information at www.thedoseum.org, or give the museum a call at 210-212-4453.
ADD A BIT OF FLAIR
Newly opened Flair Restaurant, located at 6462 N. New Braunfels Ave. in the Sunset Ridge Shopping Center, is serving up high-end Mexican street food with flair. Chef-owner Roland Aguirre will be serving fresh local foods, and the guacamole bar caught my eye. A full bar will be offered to wash it all down.
MEET ME AT THE MCNAY
Meet at the McNay Art Museum on the second Thursday of each month for an evening of free fun on the museum grounds. Beginning June 9, 6-9 p.m., each month will feature a local band or DJ, food for sale from San Antonio’s best food trucks and beer courtesy of Crispin Ciders.
