April is #NationalPoetryMonth! Written at the peak of social distancing, #HemisfairHero and Conservancy board member Josefina Beatriz Longoria shares her poem about what Hemisfair means for our city.

SPACES

A person has a couch.
A couple has a bench.
Siblings have the den.
Families have the living room.
Dogs have the backyard.
Birds have trees.
Communities have parks.
Parks have flowers.
Bicycles have sidewalks.
Cars have streets.
Cities have plazas.
Plazas have history.

Paris has Champs-Elysees.
New York has Central Park.
Mexico has the Zocolo.
San Antonio has Hemisfair.

Hemisfair is our past.
Hemisfair is our future. - Josefina Beatriz Longoria

Hemisfair's Story Time is back with a virtual twist! We'll post a new book recommendation and STEAM activity you can do at home every Tuesday at 10 a.m. on our new virtual programming page, #ParkItAtHome: hemisfair.org/parkitathome

Our #BookOfTheWeek is Dragons Love Tacos 2: The Sequel by Adam Rubin. Let your imagination run wild with our Walking Taco Print-and-Play craft! Here's a special message from Miss Kim, #HemisfairHero and Story Time volunteer: "Hi everyone! I miss you so much! Right now, it’s important that we stay safe and stay healthy. We can do this by staying home as much as possible. I look forward to seeing you all when we're able to gather again. Until then, let’s use our extra time at home to read, read, read! Maybe you’ll discover a new story you'll want to share with me! Love, Miss Kim" ❤️

⁣“Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul alike.” -John Muir, 1912⠀ ⠀
It’s easy to get stuck scrolling and refreshing the screen for hours during this uncertain time. Remember to step outside, soak up the sunshine and rest your eyes on a beautiful scene IRL, like this female Monarch in one of Yanaguana Garden’s three butterfly gardens. Hemisfair belongs to you, and we’re open for anyone seeking fresh air and exercise (but we can’t stress enough the importance of social distancing, for your health and others’). We look forward to the day when we can gather again in the place where San Antonio meets. #Hemisfair
