    Mark your calendar for Saturday, March 30, for DIHAC’s inaugural Dauphin Island Native American Festival!  The event will feature living historians, storytellers, hands-on demonstrations of Native American arts and crafts such as pottery, finger weaving and basket weaving, and much more. Further details will be announced soon. DIHAC’s Art Program at Dauphin Island School resumed in January with fourth-graders studying the life and art of Claude Monet.  As part of the artist study, the students created a tribute work in the Impressionist style. Due to an overwhelming response, a second session of Cocktails & Canvases featuring “Laverne” is scheduled for Thursday, February 7 at 6:30 pm at the Dauphin Island Gallery (the Lighthouse Building).  Come paint with instructor Barbara Teare and friends.  For reservations, send an email to info@dauphinislandarts.org or call The Gallery at 251/861-3300.
