From the Rehoboth Beach Film Society:
The moment the Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival ends…the works starts all over again. The 2013 Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival will take place November 6th through the 13th. I was so happy to see that Damon Pla has been chosen once again as the winning artist to portrait the theme of this year’s festival. His acyrlic on canvas titled “Old Man and The Must See” is the selection for the 16th anniversary of the Rehoboth Beach Film Festival. Posters, programs, ads, t-shirts, and other materials will be released in July. In 2011 Damon Pla’s work was also selected. When asked what his inspiration was for this year’s piece, he replied “Old Man and The Must See” is based around the fascination of a combination of machines working together to serve one purpose, accentuating a journey, not a destination. In this case, emphasizing the work of the camera, not the subject being filmed.
Damon Pla is from South Florida….He is a self made painter. He offers original paintings, limited editions, commissions and trompe l’oeil/murals. Happy he has made his home, here, in Southern Delaware. Want to learn more? Please visit http://www.damonpla.com. Tel. 302-541-6057. Find him on Facebook, and Twitter.

The Beach Eats – Exhibit at the Rehoboth Beach Museum – A celebration of eating in Rehoboth Beach. The museum is located at 511 Rehoboth Avenue by the roundabout and Rehoboth Beach Chamber of Commerce. It is a fun exhibit. I wrote a post on May 23, 2013 so if you want to take a peek just click on the month of May, 2013 and scroll down to the date. The iconic restaurants in Rehoboth Beach paved the way for the present restaurants. Remember Sydney’s? Sydney mentioned to me that having the restaurant at that time was “A Moment in Time”. It certainly was. So much fun and great food accompanied by amazing music. Check it out…it is worth it. More info? Please visit http://www.rehobothbeachmuseum.org.
