Growing wildflowers is a great way to add color to your garden. They attract butterflies and other pollinators, and take less regular care than a lawn! Participants will learn about how to prepare and plant a wildflower patch, and will get to take home wildflower seeds too!

Goodbyes are always the hardest when you’re having so much fun. Two years ago I signed the lease at this unassuming locale and I had no plan other than a vision of a community space with books! Suite B, a vacant space left all the room to be filled to the brim with creativity, community and memories. I’m happy to have created this with you all by my side. With special thanks to Gloria and my family. Thank you all who visited the shop, bought a book - gave a book - recommended a book, gave a workshop, attended a workshop, held a community event, the list goes on. Thank you a million times over for your support and encouragement these past couple years. I hope Ante meant something to you just as it did me. What was your most memorable experience at Ante?
Our official last day will be Friday February 6. We will be closed this week 1/14-1/22 while we sort some stuff out.

UPDATED 2026 MIDNIGHT RELEASE SCHEDULE and our first one is NEXT WEEK!
Okay so to make these midnight releases possible, I need you guys to read below the ground rules and how this is all going to work.
Our distributor for Marvel (which also distributes IDW, Dark Horse, and Boom! Studios) has decided to work with us and allow us to host midnight releases!
Doors are now going to open at 12AM during those releases! And only the publishers that are listed above are able to be taken home after midnight of that release date.
The distributor for DC (who also runs IMAGE/SKYBOUND) allows pre-payments on new comics but unfortunately cannot be taken home during the midnight release. Once pre-paid, they will be put aside and can be taken home during our regular operation hours (11AM-8PM on Wednesday, 12PM-8PM Thursday-Saturday).
SHORT VERSION: 12AM, we open. Marvel, IDW, DarkHorse and Boom! Studios comics can be physically in your hands during the event. DC and Image/Skybound cannot, but can still be pre-paid in advanced. So yes, Midnight releases are still happening but we just gotta ensure these extra steps to make it work. And seeing how awesome the RGV community is, we’re going to make it happen. So FREE PIZZA, FUN GAMES, and GREAT VIBES here at Kaboom!
This Saturday we will be celebrating our 9th year serving all our great customers! We would like to thank you all! We are here because of you!!
Saturday at 7:00 pm we will have live music with Vidal and Elvia preforming together and for you!!
Great drink specials all night!!

Better late than never, right? 😊 On Saturday, December 13th, we had such an amazing day! We kicked things off with a bird walk Santa Ana & Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuges where we spotted some fantastic birds, including verdins and a merlin. 🦅
Later that day, Dr. Andrea Contina visited the store and gave an absolutely fascinating talk about his migratory bird research! It’s amazing to see how technology is helping us understand more about these incredible creatures. 🌎✨
Fast forward to the following Saturday, and we had the privilege of hosting Andrew Orgill and Tess Kelly from the Amos Rehabilitation Keep - ARK at UT Marine Science Institute and University of Texas Marine Science Institute. They shared their incredible work reducing window strikes on campus with Feather Friendly Bird Collision Deterrent Markers and gave us great tips on making our homes and businesses more bird-friendly. 🏡💚
Huge thanks to all the amazing speakers, bird guides, and our wonderful WBU community members for making these Saturdays so special! You all make every weekend unforgettable. 🌿🦉
Happy birding, from the RGV's friendly backyard bird feeding specialists! 💚 🐦

Ante Books & Creative Studio
Goodbyes are always the hardest when you’re having so much fun. Two years ago I signed the lease at this unassuming locale and I had no plan other than a vision of a community space with books! Suite B, a vacant space left all the room to be filled to the brim with creativity, community and memories. I’m happy to have created this with you all by my side. With special thanks to Gloria and my family. Thank you all who visited the shop, bought a book - gave a book - recommended a book, gave a workshop, attended a workshop, held a community event, the list goes on. Thank you a million times over for your support and encouragement these past couple years. I hope Ante meant something to you just as it did me. What was your most memorable experience at Ante? Our official last day will be Friday February 6. We will be closed this week 1/14-1/22 while we sort some stuff out.

UPDATED 2026 MIDNIGHT RELEASE SCHEDULE and our first one is NEXT WEEK! Okay so to make these midnight releases possible, I need you guys to read below the ground rules and how this is all going to work. Our distributor for Marvel (which also distributes IDW, Dark Horse, and Boom! Studios) has decided to work with us and allow us to host midnight releases! Doors are now going to open at 12AM during those releases! And only the publishers that are listed above are able to be taken home after midnight of that release date. The distributor for DC (who also runs IMAGE/SKYBOUND) allows pre-payments on new comics but unfortunately cannot be taken home during the midnight release. Once pre-paid, they will be put aside and can be taken home during our regular operation hours (11AM-8PM on Wednesday, 12PM-8PM Thursday-Saturday). SHORT VERSION: 12AM, we open. Marvel, IDW, DarkHorse and Boom! Studios comics can be physically in your hands during the event. DC and Image/Skybound cannot, but can still be pre-paid in advanced. So yes, Midnight releases are still happening but we just gotta ensure these extra steps to make it work. And seeing how awesome the RGV community is, we’re going to make it happen. So FREE PIZZA, FUN GAMES, and GREAT VIBES here at Kaboom!

Wild Birds Unlimited
Better late than never, right? 😊 On Saturday, December 13th, we had such an amazing day! We kicked things off with a bird walk Santa Ana & Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuges where we spotted some fantastic birds, including verdins and a merlin. 🦅 Later that day, Dr. Andrea Contina visited the store and gave an absolutely fascinating talk about his migratory bird research! It’s amazing to see how technology is helping us understand more about these incredible creatures. 🌎✨ Fast forward to the following Saturday, and we had the privilege of hosting Andrew Orgill and Tess Kelly from the Amos Rehabilitation Keep - ARK at UT Marine Science Institute and University of Texas Marine Science Institute. They shared their incredible work reducing window strikes on campus with Feather Friendly Bird Collision Deterrent Markers and gave us great tips on making our homes and businesses more bird-friendly. 🏡💚 Huge thanks to all the amazing speakers, bird guides, and our wonderful WBU community members for making these Saturdays so special! You all make every weekend unforgettable. 🌿🦉 Happy birding, from the RGV's friendly backyard bird feeding specialists! 💚 🐦 #wbumcallen #rgvbirds #backyardbirding #mcallentexas #riograndevalley #Riograndevalleytexas
