With the arrival of the annual Realms Con and the monthly ArtWalk, it appears that Corpus Christi was pretty eventful on the first weekend of October. The ArtWalk kicked off Oct. 2 to show off local art galleries, artists selling one-of-a-kind pieces, live music and entertainment, food and activities specifically geared to Halloween.

Local cosplayers flocked to the American Bank Center for Realms Con, which went on Oct. 2-4. Many dressed up as their favorite anime, comic book, video game and horror characters and got to meet some of their favorite actors and artists.
