F-ing Right On Events You Need To Do In Corpus This November

It’s already going to be November?! This year has been both a fast blur and a slow trudge. On the bright side, there are plenty of f-ing right on events you need to do in Corpus this November that are fun and safe whether it be for date night, family time, or just time spent with yourself. (Especially on the days when you need a break from the kids!) From farmer’s markets, art exhibits, and food fests to concerts, comedy specials, and even a Wizard Fest there is a little something for everyone this November.

 

Farmers Market

Location: Art Center of Corpus Christi

Date: Every Wednesday This Month 5pm to 7pm

Every Wednesday Grow Local South Texas organizes a farmer’s market from 5-7pm at the Art Center of Corpus Christi located at 100 N. Shoreline Blvd. You can expect fresh produce, locally made products, food trucks, and live music. The coolest tidbit about this farmer’s market is that all the produce and products are grown and made within a 200-mile radius of Corpus Christi. Social distancing is enforced, but it’s a great way to get outdoors and support the local community. Admission is free but bring some cash to splurge on all the yummy produce!
