SUMMARY:Apalachicola Mardi Gras Barkus Parade & Street Festival
DESCRIPTION:The Mystic Krewe of Salty Barkers will be celebrating Mardi Gras Apalach-style bigger and better than ever this year\, with two days of fun.  The celebration includes a lively street festival and of course the 14th Annual Mardi Gras Pet Parade. This event\, taking place on Friday and Saturday\, February 21 and 22\, 2025 in Apalachicola\, FL\, will celebrate dogs and their people.  All visitors and their furry friends are invited to join this paw-some event.  \nThe theme for the 2025 event is “Game of Bones – the Canine Kingdom Rules”. It will be tail-wagging fun to journey into an imaginary world of canines and castles. Parading pups and their people will be wearing costumes inspired by the noble houses of the Seven Kingdoms. Guests can expect regal kings and queens\,  magicians\, brave knights\, rogues\, lots of daring dragons\, and a mystical creature or two. The creativity and spirit guests bring to this spectacle of sword and sorcery will be a sight to see.  \nNew this year\, the festivities kick off with an exciting day of fun and frivolity on Friday\, February 21\, from 2:00 to 8:00 pm ET. Guests can enjoy the Fido-Do\, an old-fashioned Mardi Gras street event. Highlights of Friday’s activities include street entertainment\, an adopters reunion\, live music\, a beer and wine garden featuring local craft brews\, costume and decorating contests\, dragon relay races\, and a live auction. \nOn Saturday\, February 22\, 2025\, the festivities will run from  11:00 am to 4:00 pm ET at Apalachicola’s Riverfront Park. While strolling through the park\, guests enjoy live music\, street entertainers\, and more than 40 local vendors offering  a variety of food and arts and crafts to enjoy. Saturday’s parade of decorated golf carts\, boats\, floats\, and walkers – both the four-legged and two-legged kind – begins at 1:00 pm ET. The parade of costumed dogs and their people kicks off at Riverfront Park and winds through town\, ending back at the park where the party will continue with all kinds of raucous fun. Registration is $5 for walkers\, $25 for golf carts\, and $50 for floats. Canine companions\, of course\, are free.  \nThe parade isn’t just for fun; it’s also for a good cause. The Mystic Krewe of Salty Barkers is partnering with local animal rescues to raise awareness and funds for animals in need. Not only will attendees have a great time\, but they will also be making a difference for injured animals and those looking for their forever homes. The King and Queen of Apalachicola’s Mardi Gras parade are always shelter animals who are ready for a forever home. As always\, they will have a place of honor in the parade. \nPre-register at saltybarkers.org. For more information\, visit saltybarkers.org or facebook.com/MardiGrasBarkusParade.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Honoring Charles Alston\, Artist & Activist
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit in recognition of Black History Month honoring Charles Henry Alston\, a celebrated African American artist and activist whose impactful work during World War II mobilized the African American community. This exhibit will open Tuesday\, February 4\, 2025 and will be on display at the museum until Saturday\, March 1.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm and there is no charge for admission.   \nCharles Henry Alston (1907–1977) was an artist who used his talents to inspire change and support the US war effort. Alston was the first African American supervisor for the Works Progress Administration’s (WPA) Federal Art Project and he created the iconic bust of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.\, which resides in the Oval Office. During WWII he also served as a member of the Office of War Information.  \nDuring World War II\, Alston created motivational posters and illustrations aimed at African American audiences\, highlighting topics such as conserving resources\, growing victory gardens\, and supporting the war effort through unity and action. His work celebrated the accomplishments of notable African American individuals\, such as Willa Brown\, the first African American woman pilot in the United States\, and also fostered pride within the community. \nThe exhibit will feature reproductions of Alston’s wartime illustrations and posters\, along with details about his achievements\, including promoting the arts and art education in Harlem and the US. Visitors will gain insight into how Alston’s art helped boost wartime morale and promoted African American contributions to the war effort. \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle\, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West.

SUMMARY:Flora Fusion: Exploring the Connection Between Plants and People - Speaker Program
DESCRIPTION:The Carrabelle History Museum is presenting an interesting speaker program entitled “Flora Fusion: Exploring the Connection Between Plants and People”. This program will feature Barbara Clark\, a Regional Director with the Florida Public Archaeology Network (FPAN)\, and will be held Saturday\, February 8\, 2025\, at 10:00 am – 12:00 pm ET at C-Quarters Marina\, 501 St James Ave (Hwy 98)\, Carrabelle\, FL. There is no charge for this event. \nBarbara Clark will dive into the fascinating relationship between people and plants in Florida\, and how it has shaped culture throughout time. Native Americans and some early settlers depended on their surrounding environment to meet their essential needs\, as their grocery store\, hardware store\, and pharmacy. Because of this\, the plants around them played an important part in their everyday lives\, serving as resources for food\, medicine\, tools\, storage\, transportation\, dyes\, and shelter. For thousands of years\, people in Florida have been learning about plants and their many uses. Archaeologists continue to uncover the diverse ways plants were used by Florida’s prehistoric inhabitants and early settlers. This presentation explores the fascinating roles plants played in Florida’s history. \nBarbara Clark\, Regional Director for both the Northwest and North Central Regional Centers of the Florida Public Archaeology Network (FPAN). She is a Registered Professional Archaeologist who specializes in historic archaeology\, 19th and early 20th century and is also a board member of the Florida Archaeological Council and Chair of the Tallahassee Trust for Historic Preservation.
