Bexar County, in partnership with the Canary Islands Descendants Association, unveiled the Founders Monument on Saturday, March 9, 2019 outside of the Historic Bexar County Courthouse. This commemorative project, by artist Armando Hinojosa, consists of five pieces. There is one male and female Canary Islander, one Native American, one Spanish friar, and one presidio soldier - representing the founders of our community.
