Downtown Low Down

Say hello to Summer, Downtowners!

Downtown Corpus Christi is more ready than ever to welcome everyone back! Each of our businesses and merchants are following strict protocals to make sure all visitors have a safe and enjoyable time in our slice of paradise. From socially distant concerts to limited capacity camps for kids, they've got you covered!

Due to overwhelming support for our downtown establishments and feedback from fans of Downtown Corpus Christi far and wide, we've decided to extend our #CurbsideChampCC program! You can still grab all your favorites to-go as well as go check out some of our best museums, galleries, restaurants, bars, shops and more in person as a new component to our #SummerInTheCityCC campagin. For all the information on these two initiatives and to see how to purchase your very own "I Support Local Tee", click here!

Last weekend, Downtown Corpus Christi was along the path of a peaceful protest organized by members of this community. We thank all involved for being safe and responsible and are proud to see those from all walks of life speaking their mind. Head here to see the DMD's full statement. 

That's all for us this week! Keep scrolling to check out how you can show love to Downtown Corpus Christi!

Safe Fun Fit at the Bayfront

Safe! Fun! Fit! If you haven't heard, Corpus Christi City Manager Peter Zannoni has created a new health and wellness initiative to keep people active and safe throughout the summer! The stretch of  Corpus Christi Bayfront on Ocean Drive, between Cole Park and the Art Center of Corpus Christi will be closed from 7 am to 11 am on Saturdays to allow residents to enjoy the best of Corpus Christi.

Free Admission at Art Museum of South Texas 

Thanks to a local foundation, admission at the Art Museum of South Texas will be free to everyone throughout the summer! They have taken the last several weeks to carefully transition their exhibits and implement new safety precautions. For all the information on your next day at the museum, click the link below!
