Thank you to everyone who joined us at @thecookieplotbooks today and helped support a local, LGBTQ+-affirming business. On this beautiful afternoon, more than 45 community members came together, and we were able to distribute over 50 free LGBTQ+ books thanks to the generosity of Penguin Random House.

This gathering is part of our monthly social series, created to build community and uplift one another through friendship, mutual support; and today, very delicious carbohydrates. We’re grateful for every conversation, every connection, and every person who showed up to make this space feel welcoming and full of care. We look forward to seeing you at the next one.

We’re excited to launch our first-ever Art Lab collaboration with K Space Contemporary, a refreshed monthly series designed to provide inclusive art workshops for Coastal Bend youth (ages 13–18).

Supported by our parent nonprofit, The Mosaic Project of South Texas, these labs are designed to remove barriers to access by offering free, welcoming creative spaces where all young people can explore art, build confidence, and connect with community.

Our inaugural session, Clayful Expressions: Sculpting Hands, was led today by Mariana Ruvalcaba Cruz @mruvalcabac_art ; huge thanks to Mariana for contributing her time and talent to support our youth.

This program builds on the foundation of last year’s Art Out Loud collaboration with Art Center of Corpus Christi and represents an exciting next chapter in expanding youth-centered creative opportunities alongside Pride Corpus Christi.

More dates and details coming soon. If you know a young person who could benefit from a space like this, please help us spread the word.

Pride Corpus Christi invites the community to come together for a casual Boba Tea Social at @chateatx in Portland, a welcoming local spot known for its handcrafted boba teas and desserts.

After a turbulent start to the year, this gathering is an opportunity to reconnect, support one another, and simply be in community. There is no formal program, just space to slow down, share conversation, and enjoy a good drink together.

Cha x Cha x Cha Tea will be hosting us from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM on Sunday, January 25, and community members are encouraged to stop by at any point during that time.

The Parade & Block Party this year reflected something powerful: Pride is not going anywhere in the Coastal Bend.

What you see in this recap is a community that stands strong and refuses to be pushed to the margins. Pride Corpus Christi is home to a vibrant network of LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies, including professionals, artists, creatives, entertainers, musicians, and countless others who continue to show up for visibility, for connection, and for one another.

If you are LGBTQIA+ or an ally, know this: you are part of a thriving, welcoming, and supportive community right here in our city. Pride lives here year-round, and it grows because of the people who believe in the power of authenticity and unity.

We extend our sincere gratitude to @hilliardlawtx, our Title Sponsor, and to each of our sponsors whose continued support makes this celebration and our year-round work possible.

Thank you for being part of this year’s Parade & Block Party. We look forward to seeing you again next year as we continue building a stronger and more inclusive Coastal Bend.

We’ll see you in 2026. Happy Holidays!

The Art of Expression
Drag is creativity in motion, art, storytelling, and courage all rolled into one. It’s not a crime. It’s a living, breathing act of freedom of expression and speech, a reminder that artistry has always been one of our most powerful forms of resistance and celebration.

Behind every performer is dedication, craft, and heart. When you support your local entertainers, you help sustain the spaces where self-expression thrives, and in turn, you help our whole community grow richer, louder, and more vibrant each year.

Support your local queens, kings, and artists. Celebrate their artistry. Defend their right to create freely. Because when their voices shine, so does ours.

The Power of You
There’s a moment when you realize that you are enough. That the voice inside you deserves to be heard, the person you are deserves to be seen, and that your light belongs exactly where it shines.

When you stand in a space built by love, affirmation, and community, that truth becomes clearer. Surrounded by those who see you fully, you begin to believe in yourself more deeply.

Pride exists for that very reason, to remind every one of us that self-belief is not only possible, it’s powerful. It’s where we reclaim our stories, honor our truth, and stand together in the light of who we are. 💖
