Drive North from Loop 410 on Broadway for approximately 1½ miles. Turn left on Boardwalk and take your 2nd right into the parking lot. Vigini Studios is in the building on your right - 2531 Boardwalk (Building B).
Rental cars are not necessary as we are conveniently located next to the airport and shuttles from recommended hotels will assist in your pick-up and delivery from the airport as well as to the studio. Certain hotels will also shuttle you to any fun area including the Quarry (a must!) and North Star Mall, anything within a 3 mile radius of the hotel. Taxis are recommended for the Riverwalk experience. If you have not visited the Riverwalk, you have not been to San Antonio!

Vigini Studios Facilities Location: San Antonio, The Venice of America
"Your space is fantastic and the things you are doing are really great. I’m so glad someone has taken a visionary and leadership role on behalf of American decorative painting professionals. You guys take it to the next level. Very exciting"
"The welcoming feeling you get when you walk into your studio at the start of the day is something that other studios and teachers could learn from. I will definitely be back!" - Barbara Oklahoma
Samples Browsers and walls filled with samples inspire students and give them many artistic ideas. Students also get the opportunity to watch decorative contracting work in progress in our spacious studio.
Atmosphere
"Your studio is magnificent, and so comfortable. Your staff is very professional and very upstanding in their friendliness towards students. They are a great asset to your business, I can see."
Students from across the United States and around the world have enjoyed our climate controlled facility. Each participant has a 4X8 foot area to work on. Practice walls are used to help students gain knowledge and confidence that they will be able to translate techniques learned on sample boards into larger areas. Complete sets of brushes and tools are provided for use during the workshops and in certain classes (as in trompe l'oeil and mural), participants actually take home a special package of brushes. We invite all potential clients and students to tour the studio with an appointment. Contact info@viginistudios.com for a mutually convenient time.
Entertainment
Local Attractions It is hard to believe (even to us natives) that San Antonio is America's 8th largest city in the United States. Although thoroughly modern, we have purposely kept our small town feel, avoiding the ambiance of those megalopolis's in Texas. The Riverwalk is spotted with sidewalk cafes - The Venice of North America.
Other San Antonio attractions include:
-
The McNay Museum very close to the studio-a very thorough collection of paintings, furniture, and decorative arts.
-
El MercadoA typical Mexican market (a must see with great deals)
-
San Antonio Zoo and Brackenridge Park (2 miles from the studio and a highly recommended site by those who visit with children)
-
Sea World - Texas - The largest Sea World in the Nation
