SynopsisWhen seven women of the Order of Saint Ursula and one priest arrived in frontier San Antonio, none could predict the future facing the tranquil campus that rose on the banks of the San Antonio River.By 1970 the Ursuline Academy had moved away. Then the San Antonio Conservation Society and the Southwest Craft Center rescued the buildings from destruction. The landmark campus lives on as the home of the Southwest School of Art and Craft, a leading institution of lifelong creative learning.
