Celebrating CowParade San Antonio: Online auction now open to support CHRISTUS Children’s


9/26/2025

The excitement of CowParade San Antonio reached new heights as supporters, art lovers and community leaders gathered at the historic Red Berry Estate for the live auction of 16 artist-designed cows.

Guests enjoyed an evening of dinner, bidding and celebration last night to support life-saving care at CHRISTUS Children’s in areas like pediatric heart, neurosurgery and cancer treatment.

“The live auction event is not just about the art, but about what the art makes possible,” said Terry Kyle, CEO and chief development officer at CHRISTUS Children’s Foundation. “Each cow represents creativity, generosity and above all, hope. The funds raised will directly support the children and families who depend on us every day. We are so grateful to our community for stepping up in such a big way.”

The live auction may be complete, but some of the herd still need a place to call home. More than 50 cows are now available through the online auction, open now through Oct. 10. These life-sized works of art can be purchased for homes, businesses or even donated to local nonprofits and organizations. Each cow is a chance to own a piece of San Antonio history and art while making a difference.

Throughout the summer, the cows served as colorful beacons for the children and families receiving care at CHRISTUS Children’s, symbols of joy, strength and community support. Now, as they find their permanent homes, their legacy will continue to shine in San Antonio and beyond.

Community members are encouraged to visit the CHRISTUS CowParade website to view the online gallery and place their bids today.
