Dermott Crawfish Festival Eat Arkansas.jpg

If you're brave enough to ride out to Chicot County this weekend, you too can enjoy the tunes and tails at the Dermott Crawfish Festival.  In addition to gospel music, a motorcycle poker run and plenty of activities for the kids, there's crawfish galore.  The crawfish dinners begin at noon today and continue until tomorrow night or until the mudbugs are gone.  For more information, call (870) 538-5656 or check out the festival website.

Not food related but related to the festival -

Growing up in Southeast Arkansas and having been to this festival many times, I find it odd that there are no photos of African Americans anywhere on the event's website. The makeup of Dermott and Chicot County is for sure more African American than white. I just find this odd. Maybe I am missing something. Hmm.
