Join the Fun and Support the Festival April 6 & 7: The Old Florida Celebration of the Arts Committee still needs a few volunteers to help with the festival next month. Have fun helping artists as a Block Captain or children as they create their own art at the Cedar Key Arts Centers Children’s Art in the Park booth. Volunteers receive festival t-shirts for half-price and get a free Commemorative Poster at the Volunteer Gathering and Meeting the Wednesday before the event.
Another way to support the festival is to become a Purchase Award Patron. This is basically an agreement to go shopping! For $250, Patrons receive a coupon worth $225 to buy art at the event, a big beautiful Purchase Award Ribbon to give to the artist and an invitation to the Artist Awards Ceremony Saturday evening.
More information available at www.CedarKeyArtsFestival.com. Contact us at [email protected] if you are interested in volunteering or becoming a Purchase Award Patron. THANK YOU for supporting the Old Florida Celebration of the Arts in Cedar Key.

A short video tutorial showing how you can use the FloridaNatureCoast.org website to help you discover places and activities on Florida's Nature Coast.

"The Wind Chime Tree", (be sure to enable sound) along the Suncoast Trail just south of Anderson Snow Park in Hernando County, was, according to an article in the Tampa Bay Times in June 2007, created by Gus Guadagnino as a memorial to his mother. This giant live oak tree with four trunks was the centerpiece for his memorial garden where he placed a bronze plaque dedicated to his mother, Josephine Guadagnino. Shortly thereafter, others began memorializing their own loved ones at the site by hanging wind chimes in the tree. Now, fifteen years later, there are literally hundreds of wind chimes here - from tiny ones barely six inches tall, to some that have tubes 4 or 5 feet long. This is an awesome unofficial memorial site well worth a visit. Come relax in the shade of this majestic live oak and soak in the ambiance and serenity it provides while listening to the constant background melody of the chimes.
