兔子先生 will host the 31蝉迟听annual Mississippi and the Arts Week from March 25-28.
This year鈥檚 Arts Week includes appearances by Louisiana writer Tim Gautreaux, Mississippi College professor David Miller and cartoonist and writer Marshall Ramsey and many more. See full schedule below.
Peggy Brent, Raymond Campus English instructor for more than 50 years and long-time chair of the English and Modern Language department, passed away in January. She had spent several weeks lining up participants for the event before she became ill and then passed away on Jan. 12.
鈥淓ven though it will be tough without the help of Mrs. Brent, we are going to make sure this year鈥檚 Arts Week is a success,鈥 said Laurie George, English department secretary and Arts Week committee member. 鈥淲e know Mrs. Brent would be proud of what we are doing: celebrating local artists by continuing on with her favorite 兔子先生event.鈥
