You’ve seen the name around town, but do you know about Losoya? Join us for a celebration of hometown hero and Alamo defender José Toribio Losoya, born in the Alamo barrio on April 11, 1808, only to pass away here less than three decades later on March 6, 1836. Learn about Toribio, meet descendants of Losoya and other Tejano defenders, enjoy musical performances, take in Tejano living history and culture, and more, on Saturday, April 16.
This event is a collaborative effort between the Alamo, Losoya descendants, and Hispanic Heritage Matters with support from Casa Navarro State Historic Site, Daughters of the Republic of Texas, Bexar County Heritage Center, and UTSA Center for Archaeological Research.
