The building is the original San Angelo National Bank built in 1886 and is now the home of Miss Hattie’s Restaurant and Cathouse Lounge which serves lunch and dinner. Miss Hattie’s has developed a great reputation for their mesquite smoked ribeye steaks and hamburgers which were selected as one of the best in the state of Texas. The menu offers sandwiches, salads and other traditional West Texas fare. Friday and Saturday night enjoy live music in the Cathouse Lounge. Full bar available. Open Monday - Saturday for lunch, dinner, desserts or drinks. Open daily at 11:00am until the last customer leaves.

The legend of Miss Hattie’s goes beyond its history.

Voted as one of the best Burgers in Texas by Texas Monthly, and reputed as one of the best 21 day aged mesquite smoked rib eye steaks by our customers. Others have tried to copy Miss Hattie’s bacon wrapped jalapenos and crab cakes, no one has succeeded.

Once known as the Wool Capital of the World, San Angelo, Texas continues in the tradition today with many sheep ranches still in operation. Much of the West Texas history is rich with tales of the wool and mohair industry.

Sadly, San Angelo and the wool industry waved farewell to the pageant in 1972. As a result, Downtown San Angelo Inc.’s Promotions Committee Chairman, Brenda Gunter, had the inspiration to revive this event and bring it into present day. Thus San Angelo’s The Miss Wool Pageant was the idea “Sheep-Spectacular” was born. Recogof Della Halbert Whitehead. She connizing that trying to replicate the original ceived the idea of the pageant as a means pageantry would not be feasible, Ms. of publicizing wool products to consum- Gunter envisioned contestants as speers around the world with the idea to cially designed fiber glass sheep. Once stimulate the use of wool for draperies, sheep were solicited, sponsors would rugs, upholstery and for fashion. The contract local artists to produce the deinitial Miss Wool contest was held in sign and theme of their project. Sponsor1952 and was named the “Miss Wool ship information packets were produced of Texas Pageant”. The event was so and included recommended materials, successful that the Sheep & Goat Raisartist information listing, suggested projers Association presented a plan for a ect titles, estimated sponsor costs and national pageant at the National Wool contact data.

Growers Association Convention held in Phoenix, Arizona in 1958. The first From the moment the boxes were national pageant, The Miss Wool Conopened and the fiberglass forms were test, took place on August 28, 1958 in displayed, artists could be seen running the newly constructed San Angelo Coli- their hands over them as if introducseum. Some 6000 spectators attended ing themselves. Visitors passing by had the pageant, and the tradition was born. to stop to take a peek at the oversize sheep. Contestants made their way to

artist’s studios, garages and homes via large vehicles and pick-up trucks. The enthusiasm ballooned and it was not long before more fiberglass forms were ordered.

A “Sheep-Spectacular” Parade was held on October 13, 2007 which consisted of twenty plus trucks, hay bales to support sheep art, identifying banners and plenty of volunteers to shepherd the sheep throughout the downtown area.

Once all spectators cheered the parade entries, trucks made their way to be displayed. Ballots were placed at the entrance to the building and visitors were given the opportunity to select their favorite design and vote for the 2007 Miss Wool.

Another aspect of the “Sheep-Spectacular” was to have a contest with high school students allowing them the opportunity to design a smaller scale ceramic sheep. The students were asked to submit their design and theme. The

result was a fabulous array of color, design and clever project titles which were featured as centerpieces at the dinner, concert and dance, “Shepherds Shindig,” which culminated the Miss Wool day’s events.

Many factions of the community quickly became involved and the “Sheep-Spectacular” became a San Angelo tradition. The flock began to grow not only in the central business district, but you’ll find brightly painted sheep all over the city.

As of today, Downtown San Angelo, Inc. has sold 80 of the fiberglass sheep forms to a diverse group of sponsors (some as far away as Colorado). The project provided various elements of economic development by providing local artists to be compensated for their work and various businesses for providing a base to hoist and keep the sheep in place.

Angelo Civic Theatre One of the art world’s most enduring elements – theatrederives its capacity for survival and success form the will of the people and the community it serves. Perhaps that is why Angelo Civic Theatre’s rich history is such a vivid testament to the San Angelo’s artistic spirit.

Angelo Civic Theatre traces its developmental roots from a dramatic society that was formed on November 21, 1885, and whose first project was initiated to secure funds for a town clock. Although vacillating economic times and two world wars suspended the artistic efforts of the community on a number of occasions, theatrical productions continued. In 1950 upon the creation of the San Angelo Civic Theater, a sustainable form of theatre was realized. In 1980, the theater’s Board of Directors raised the funds necessary to purchase and renovate the Parkway Theatre into a 230-seat theatre that continues as the Theatre’s current home. Since its inception, the Theatre’s artistic programming has expanded to serve approximately 15,000 participants each year.

Angelo Civic Theatre is committed to the growth of each volunteer, artist, staff member, board member and patron. In keeping with that ideal, the Theatre will provide opportunities that encourage a commitment to artistic excellence, respect for self and others and service to the community.

A symphony orchestra is a remarkable thing, a well-oiled team of highly trained professionals working together in precise unison with only one goal: to entertain you. We live in an increasingly hectic world, a world in which opportunities to exult in the human spirit are sometimes rare. A symphony concert gives you that chance. This season, Maestro Hector Guzman has woven together a repertoire that includes guest artists and musical selections in a one-of-a-kind experience that will allow you to escape the everyday as we come together in the concert hall. The San Angelo Symphony’s artistic, education and civic programs would not be possible without the generous support of individuals and businesses in our area. We ask that you partner with the Symphony and invest in our continued legacy. Join us for one of our many concerts or special events this season and make your life “Anything But Ordinary�!

The San Angelo Symphony is located in the historic City Hall, 72 West College, on the West Mezzanine level. Please visit our website at www.sanangelosymphony.org or call us at (325) 658-5877.

In 1978 a group of local citizens banded together to create an organization to support the arts and culture in San Angelo and the Concho Valley. That group later became the San Angelo Cultural Affairs Council. The San Angelo Cultural Affairs Council supports the art and culture in the area through the twenty-one year old Cactus Music Series, the San Angelo Artist Registry, the weekly newsletter, grants to local arts and non-profit organizations, and the oldest wine and food festival in Texas. The 31st Annual San Angelo Wine and Food Festival will kick off with a grand affair on January 17, 2015. Chef Walter Scheib, White House Chef for Presidents Clinton & Bush, will prepare a star-studded menu of dishes that have been served at White House State Dinners to kings, queens, foreign dignitaries, and celebrities. The annual Uncorked and Fork and Cork Finale events will bring wine and food from across the United States to San Angelo for two special evenings on April 23rd and 24th, 2015. Visit sanangeloarts. com to sign up for our weekly e-newsletter or for more information about the San Angelo Wine and Food Festival!
