about the publication: On The Town: San Angelo is a special publication of Grace Media publisher: Jose Palos | jose@discoverwesttexas.com advertising director: Lori Summerlin | 325-262-0303 | lori@discoverwesttexas.com

about the cover Autumn Brockman’s journey to founding San Angelo’s ARock salon defies convention. Originally from Vernon, Texas, she arrived in the mid90s with dreams of becoming a nurse practitioner. However, her innate talent as a makeup artist emerged, gaining recognition in Los Angeles as both an artist and model.

Featured in magazines like Street Customs and Maxim, Brockman’s career soared. Pursuing a degree in Cosmetology in 2008, she planted roots in West Texas in 2013, establishing ARock in San Angelo. Describing ARock as an edgy salon, Brockman emphasizes innovation, urging her team to create eye-catching work while staying attuned to trends.

In 2018, she elevated the beauty industry in San Angelo by relocating ARock to a remodeled 4800-squarefoot facility, expanding services to include massage therapy and makeup courses.

Embracing social media, Brockman scouts Instagram and Facebook for emerging talent, leveraging it to grow her brand. With over 33,200 fans on Facebook in 2019, ARock continues to flourish, guided by Brockman’s commitment to individual growth and building personal empires in the evolving beauty industry.

Glowing Strong at 25: Concho Christmas Celebration In 1994, entrepreneur Lee Pfluger’s vision gave birth to the Concho Christmas Celebration, a festive spectacle that has since become a cherished San Angelo tradition. Now, under the capable leadership of Jovan Pickett, the event coordinator, the celebration marks its 25th year with a promise to make everything brighter and more magical.

The Concho Christmas Celebration began as a walking tour of Christmas lights at El Paseo de Santa Angela, featuring twenty-one sponsor Christmas Cards. In 1996, it found a permanent home along River Drive, evolving into a 2.5-mile driving tour along the Concho River, adorned with over three million lights. This annual celebration kicks off the holiday season early in December, transforming the city into a festive wonderland with signature events like the Community Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony and the Lights of Christmas Parade.

The festivities have expanded over the years, offering a range of activities, from the Bike Through the Lights and Tuba Christmas concert to the enchanting Kayak through the Lights, providing a nighttime float beneath the twinkling lights along the Concho River. Concerts at the Pavilion feature local community bands presenting the music of the season, and a Live Nativity Scene adds a touch of tradition to the celebration.
