We sit down and talk with the myth, the legend, the unicorn that is Duane Sylvestre. He’s part teacher, part entertainer and definitely a whole lot of fun. He shares how he carved out his career by claiming the bar as his stage and making guests into fans by tending to their every need.

Since leaving the bartender’s life in search of a better work/life balance, he has taken on the role of Spirit Specialist for Campari Group America. Now on a much larger stage, he shares his creative approach to crafting cocktails, is a mentor to bartenders far-and-wide and offers sage advice about mapping out smart career paths. With all that, he still finds time to pay tribute to those who came before him by leading the class, “Good Life Behind Bars: An Introduction to the History of Black Bartenders,” which is part of a larger speaking series.

As Ann and Sandy both say, Smith & Lens is so much more than a gallery of just 4-walls and we couldn’t agree more. Just like the founders, it’s a little bit quirky, totally unique and a whole lot creative. The walls are adorned with works by various artists, to include Ann’s thoughtful, yet a bit rebellious approach to photography and mix media pieces. As a silversmith, Sandy handcrafts metal into stunning jewelry, hollowware bowls and so much more. Each piece is truly a unique work of art.

Unleashing their creative spirits outside of their gallery, these two amazing women have established two can’t-miss festivals. Every January, head to Bay St. Louis for Dolly Should, a fest to celebrate Dolly Parton’s birthday with a Dolly look-alike contest, all sorts vendors and delicious food, of course. If you’re looking for a bit of Frida fun, then start growing your unibrow now and get your floral headband ready for Frida Fest. Every July, the community comes together to celebrate the art of Mexico’s famed artist, Frida Kahlo. This year’s proceeds will go towards an art supply and education fund for budding artists. Both of these grassroots fests are FREE, so why not put both on your calendar?
