Texas Campus Visitor Information
Located in the historic Pearl Brewery complex just two miles north of downtown, the CIA, San Antonio provides modern classrooms and teaching kitchens in a historic setting. What you see today is just the start of the CIA, San Antonio's goal of bringing the cuisines of Latin America to their rightful place on the world stage.
