CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The City of Corpus Christi kicked off its Downtown Mural Fest for the fourth consecutive year Sunday.
During Sunday's kick-off event, volunteers assisted community members in installing a new community mural titled "Windows to the Coastal Bend," located near 325 South Chaparral Street.
The mural is curated by the local art collective, K-Space Mural Arts, and painted by Coastal Bend neighbors.
"Each window represents a stained glass window, and each one has a symbol of the coastal bend in it," said Michelle Smythe, executive director of K-Space Contemporary.
Attendees also enjoyed live music and food from various vendors during the festivities.
The murals created during the event are semi-permanent and designed to last for several years.
The community can enjoy the murals during Art Walk on Friday, June 6 and a Mural Dedication Block Party will take place on Saturday, June 7 from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m.
