The Art Angels were formed in 2010 by the Western Art Committee to support the scholarship program. Each year the Western Art Committee holds the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo Western Art Contest. Through membership donations, the Art Angels raise funds to help support the scholarships provided each year to high school students whose entries are judged Top 12 in the contest. By joining together, the Art Angels become a Western Art Donor entitled to receive a piece of winning artwork from the contest. The Art Angels will hold a drawing after the end of the end of the Rodeo allowing one of their members an opportunity to win this artwork. For each $60 donation, a member gets one entry in the drawing.
