Whether you are a writer, a reader or both, the People’s Literary Festival offers something for everyone. This free collaborative celebration supports both new and seasoned writers by bridging literary borders and genres. Marking its 10th year, the three-day festival was held March 6-8, at different venues across Corpus Christi. Six locations were utilized to offer a variety of sessions, activities, and book fairs, including previous hosts Del Mar College, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi and All Saints’ Episcopal Church, along with three new venues: the Downtown Corpus Christi Management District’s First Friday Artwalk, House of Rock and Jazz Room Corpus Christi.

On March 3, 2025, the Music Department at Del Mar College unveiled its new Honors Wall display, which features the names of more than 300 DMC Music Department alumni dating back to 1959. The display can be found on the third floor of Building A of the General Academic & Music Building on the Heritage Campus.
