As the Deltaville Maritime Museum (DMM) and Holly Point Nature Park enter both their 21st anniversary and their 2023 events season, they offer a large weekend of happenings for opening weekend on May 5 and 6. Flowers are in bloom, shrubbery is budding and the arbors of the park are filling with shade as the leaves come out.
DMM will celebrate its opening with a Friday, May 5, “Cinco de Mayo” dinner and dance and a Saturday, May 6, of shopping, showing classic cars, creek cruises, children’s games, food, open mic fun in the pavilion, and music — lots of music.
At the first Holly Point Market of the season on May 6, 9 a.m.-1 p.m., there will be lots of shopping with arts, crafts, cheeses, honey, live music in the park, walking around the park and on the nature trails, eating great food, lounging around, and a concert. It’s all happening at the DMM.
Don’t miss our annual classic car show. Multiple car clubs and individuals with classic and antique cars will converge starting at 9 a.m.
Our local Deltaville musicians, Ollie and Sandy Adcock, will be playing in the open events pavilion beginning at 10 a.m.
Come back to the park around 4 p.m. as the gates open for a wonderful evening of music as local guitarist Isaac Boswell opens at 5 p.m. for the Flat-Tones performing at 6-8 p.m.
Watch the Sentinel and the museum’s website for more detail as we get closer.
