An architectural gem on the city's bayfront, The Art Center of Corpus Christi is home to 11 arts organizations, and showcases works from local and area artists in rotating exhibitions. The 14,400-square-foot building houses a main gallery and four studios, including a clay studio that encourages artists to complete works-in-progress in front of visitors. The Art Center also offers art classes, to express your own creativity in photos, watercolors, oils, sculpture or other media. Workshops, outreach projects and other events to promote the arts to the public are an integral part of the Art Center of Corpus Christi as well.
Experience what is perhaps the most curious, peculiar, yet extraordinarily fantastic festive moment ever imagined, Día de los Muertos, also known as the Day of the Dead Street Festival, celebrating the lives we knew and miss and yet joyfully inviting all to pay respects to those who passed on and celebrate the life that makes and solidifies our cherished memories. You’ll find Día de Los Muertos themed artworks, Wall and Altars of Remembrance, craft items, jewelry, fun children’s activities, challenging games, and plenty of food as the festival takes over several blocks of Downtown. This rich Mexican tradition has multiple stages of live entertainment, traditional Mexican cultural performances, and local bands.
