Center staff and Arts Society students go the head of the class at the
Doo-Dah Parade! |
The
weather was perfect in May for the Arts Community of Easton's Shad
Arts Celebration Doo-Dah Parade in conjunction with the 21th Annual
Forks of the Delaware Shad Fishing Tournament and Festival, so the
Williams Center and the Arts Society enrolled a School of Fish and
went downtown for the delightful event.
