Our Story
In 2021, Henry Cisneros envisioned a world-class Arboretum for the South Side of San Antonio, advocating for a space that celebrates the region's rich heritage. By 2022, a dedicated board and expert advisors were assembled to bring this vision to life. In the fall of 2023, Arboretum San Antonio partnered with Sasaki to engage the community in a master planning process, ensuring the arboretum reflects the diverse culture of South Texas.
