Help Create an African American Cultural Context Statement for San Antonio
Do you know key people, places, events, and traditions associated with San Antonio’s African American community? The City’s Office of Historic Preservation would like to hear from you.
Your knowledge and ideas are needed to help create a cultural context statement. This type of statement will provide a thematic framework to help identify and evaluate local African American sites that should be preserved.
Please respond by July 22nd, using the ways listed below.

- E-mail: ohp@sanantonio.gov

WHAT HISTORY, STORIES, PEOPLE, PLACES, AND EVENTS do you think should be included in our city’s African American Cultural Context Statement? Let the Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) know by answering a few questions at

OHP will be accepting comments through July 22, 2022. They will post a draft of the statement in August for public comment.
