 Several
years ago, Arlin Dease had a vision to create a cultural arts center that would
bring out the best in human nature by communing with one's self, one's friends
and one's family. A place so majestic that its beauty would inspire all people
and establish an environment where creative minds could come together to
enlighten each other.
|
Arlin
started his quest for the perfect location to transform this vision into
reality, and found 238 acres in the beautiful rolling hills of the Felicianas -
starting his multi-phase plan to create
Hemingbough. |
 The Annual
Easter Sunrise Service has drawn thousands to Hemingbough over the last 18
years. Music and theater are on the schedule from year to year.

The
Greek revival Amphitheatre is the largest in the Gulf South. From sunrise mists
on the lake to evening whispers of fading light, the Amphitheatre holds the
audience in rapt attention.

About Hemingbough
Hemingbough cannot be
found in any dictionary, because as a word, it is undefinable.
As a place, Hemingbough is the essence of
spiritual purity and tranquility, serving all people as a reaffirmation of the
beauty of nature and the peace within. |

"We
must learn from the sounds of nature, to listen to the universal tones; for we
are but a reflection of nature."
