Live Music With:
Saturday, Dec. 9th 11am-2pm: Max McCann - Music has taken Max on a three decade journey of highs and lows breaks and breakdowns, stinky vans and four star hotel rooms. It is all evident as he creates a soulful, tooth grinding display of original heartfelt bluesy vocals and guitar playing.The parameters of his credentials varies in great range from; holding the performance record at the famous “Green Parrot Bar” in Key West to playing at the Infamous ,“Museumuferfest” in Frankfurt Germany for eight thousand people ten days straight . Big or small and regardless of venue, “My man comes to play”- Jimmy Johnson (blues legend), and that’s what McCann delivers consistently.
Sunday, Dec. 10th 2-5pm Dino Lourdi: Originally from the island of Bali, Dino's style is multi-genre incorporating blues, jazz, R & B, pop, classical and rock to blend a sound that's both easy on the ears and fun to jam to. See Dino's Facebook page at Dino Lourdi Music.

Read this wonderful story at Bitter Southerner: The Life and Art of Missionary Mary Proctor.

Elmore's Landing has been a landmark in SoWal for many years. It's hard to miss the giant chainsaw sculptures and colorful folk art as you enter or exit South Walton on Hwy 331 just south of the bay. If you ever had the good fortune of meeting Joe, it's likely you haven't forgotten the big bear of a man with the bear-hug personality. Joe was intense and creative when wielding his chainsaw to cut away at a massive piece of wood. Joe’s passing this past March left a big hole in SoWal’s art culture and it is heartening to know that his gallery will continue.
