Fact text

- The town's main arts festival is named after Walter Anderson, a nationally renowned painter who found all his inspiration wandering the local barrier islands and coastline.
- A doctor literally renamed the town 'Ocean Springs' in 1854 because he was convinced the local springs had magical healing powers.
- Downtown Ocean Springs is lined with live oak trees and packed with art galleries, it's basically the Gulf Coast's answer to a bohemian artist colony.
