The mission of Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum is to inspire the creative genius in us all by nurturing artists in an innovative contemporary art museum. Developed from a grassroots event in July of 1986, Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum is the first and longest-running venue for contemporary art in San Antonio. The establishment of Blue Star as an exhibition space arose from the need to provide a platform for the work and ideas of local contemporary artists. In the years since its inception, Blue Star Contemporary has grown with the community, instigating positive change in both the art community and the community at large. The development of Blue Star Contemporary's exhibitions and educational programming has resulted in the social and economic revitalization of the surrounding Lavaca, King William, and South Town neighborhoods. The event that started it all in the summer of 1986 has developed into Contemporary Art Month, an annual event that now includes over fifty collaborating organizations, cultural centers, museums, and alternative spaces. Now in its twenty-eighth year, Blue Star continues to be an incubator for contemporary art in San Antonio, hosting over twenty exhibitions each year within its four on-site galleries and multiple offsite locations within the community. These exhibitions feature both emerging and world-renowned artists who hail both from the Alamo City and across the globe. Over 300,000 visitors each year experience contemporary art at Blue Star through exhibitions, the MOSAIC after-school education program, and community events, which is why Blue Star Contemporary stands firm in its commitment to inspire the creative genius in us all.
