EVENT DAY/TIME AND LOCATION
Art Center Tea Time — A Royal Tea
Saturday, May 9, 2026 | 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Art Center of Corpus Christi, Bay View Gallery
100 North Shoreline Boulevard, Corpus Christi, TX 78401
DIRECTIONS
The Art Center is located on North Shoreline Boulevard along the Corpus Christi bayfront in downtown. From US-181 South, take the exit toward Shoreline Blvd and head south. The Art Center will be on your right overlooking the bay and marina. From I-37, take the exit toward downtown/Shoreline Blvd and head east toward the water, then turn south on Shoreline. The building is easily visible from the waterfront.
PARKING
The Art Center has an on-site parking lot, though it is small (approximately 25 cars). Street parking and additional public lots are available nearby along Shoreline Blvd. Arriving early is recommended as this is a ticketed event with limited capacity.
REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION FOR ENTRY
We recommend bringing your ticket (printed or digital) and a photo ID.
DRESS CODE/SUGGESTED ATTIRE
The event is Bridgerton/royalty-themed. Guests are encouraged to dress in their finest — garden party attire, tea dresses, fascinators, suits, or full Regency-era inspired looks are all welcome.
WHAT TO BRING
Your ticket (printed or on your phone), a valid photo ID, and your best royal attitude! A flower bar is included — you'll be creating a bouquet to take home, so no need to bring flowers.
WHAT NOT TO BRING
Any outside food or drink.
