San Antonio Lutheran Coronation

• The art pieces displayed at Lutheran Coronation are handcrafted by the participants and their families

• The artists who design the gowns are volunteers

• Each court has both legacy and first-generation participants who all have the same chance of being elected Queen or Princess for the following year

• The Lutheran Coronation started in the 1950s as an event only for Lutheran young women, but has grown to be an opportunity for young women and men of many different Christian backgrounds

• Most participants who create art for the Lutheran Coronation have never made anything like this art before… the handicraft is taught by Lutheran Coronation Board members

• Lutheran Coronation Queen and Princess were elected by their 2023 peers and have created a new gown for 2024 Court theme

• All the beadwork is completed by hand by the participants, their parents, grandparents and community of friends

• The gowns look costly, but are affordable for many families because the building of the artwork is done by the family instead of professional artists

• The artwork is displayed at over a dozen San Antonio and community parades in South Texas throughout the year, so it is viewed by hundreds of thousands of people

• Lutheran Coronation builds relationships, celebrates faith and creates art for the San Antonio community
