The holidays are right around the corner!
Make plans to attend the Christmas Parade in Grand Cane on Saturday, December 1st from 10am-2pm. The shops will be open and the Village is planning a tree lighting ceremony in the park afterwards. The Gallery will feature a new body of work being presented for the first time by Lenora DeLude, as well as new pieces by our other artists.
We hope to see you there!
Our annual meeting will be held on August 23 at 6:30 in the DAC Gallery. Come join us to hear our guest speaker, Sana McWilliams, present a few of her art pieces and talk about her inspiration.
DAC members may also participate in voting for board members. We have two members up for renewing their terms– Gloria Peters and Mark Poole. We also have two who would like to be voted on the board– Kathleen Davis and Cindy Williams. Kathleen is new to DAC, and Cindy was on the board previously.
We will have light refreshments available. We hope to see you there!

It’s that time of the year again! Desoto Arts Council has kicked off our annual ‘Red Envelope’ fundraiser. If you don’t receive an invitation in the mail and are interested in donating, please let us know. We will be glad to send you information.
This is our only scheduled fund drive each year, and without the support of the community, we couldn’t keep the doors open. You may download the DAC Annual Red Envelope Fund Raiser Form and mail it to our office at:

As a lifestyle photographer, capturing “the moment” in nature, landscape, people and events… is my passion. ~ Cindy Williams
Williams’ portfolio of original photographs beautifully captures the spirit of life at the moment and allows us to share those moments forever.
