Aloha Vaqueros: Hawaiian Cowboys Ride into the Briscoe Western Art Museum on the San Antonio Riverwalk

Experience Aloha Vaqueros at the Briscoe Western Art Museum: Hawaiian Cowboys Meet Texas Tradition!

We had an incredible time celebrating the arrival of Aloha Vaqueros, the newest exhibit at the Briscoe Western Art Museum. This exclusive members-only preview gave us a first look at a powerful and surprising story: the rich cultural connection between Hawaiian cowboys (paniolo) and Texas vaqueros. 🤠🌺

The Briscoe is always a favorite destination of ours — not just for its world-class exhibits, but for the amazing member events and perks that make every visit feel extra special. This vibrant gathering, complete with island-inspired food and drinks, was the perfect kickoff to an unforgettable exhibit. 🌮🍹

Located right on San Antonio’s gorgeous Riverwalk, the museum offers a truly immersive cultural experience. It’s the perfect place to dive into Western heritage while enjoying the beauty and energy of one of Texas’s most iconic destinations.

Aloha Vaqueros sheds light on the little-known but deeply rooted bond between the paniolo of Hawaii and the vaquero traditions of the American Southwest. Their shared legacy in ranching, horsemanship, and cultural fusion is a fascinating chapter in Western history you won’t want to miss.

Don’t miss your chance to explore this extraordinary exhibit — now open at the Briscoe Western Art Museum on the Riverwalk.
