Special to the Beacon
The Cedar Key Arts Center held a Salute to Wildlife March 3. From 5-7 p.m. guests explored the exhibit sipping happily on wine and enjoying the food.
In appreciation of the Suwanne Refuge, the art was to feature the area. Ann Kamzelski and Jack Murphy were among the artists with work on display.
Kamzalski is a digital photographer. Armed with her camera and Photoshop, she creates images that keep the viewer wondering.

Jeff Klinkenberg, who writes about Florida culture and people, will visit the Cedar Key Public Library on at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, March 10, to give a program about his unique perspective on his home state. Klinkenberg’s talk, part of the library’s current “Our Stories” series, will be an entertaining, informative look at some of the state’s more colorful people, places and events.
