The stars are made of ceramic tile and fill the courtyard of the Market.
The Walk of Fame was created as a tribute to the diversity and abundance of music from artists in South Texas, past and present. When the Walk of Fame opened in 2004, 6 stars were initially installed. Since then 6 stars are added each year on the first Friday of June, kicking off the Annual Water Street Market Music and Art Fest.
Here is a random sampling of the 60 stars that can be found here.
Check out their website for a full listing of the artists who are honored here and for information about the annual event honoring 6 more artists.
