The Fall Festival will feature the following special guests:

Dr. Seth H. Branson

“Distinguished guest speaker Dr. Seth H. Bramson, a notable railroad historian and prolific author, boasts the title of America’s most-published author on Florida history. With a collection spanning 63 years, he is the foremost collector of Florida East Coast Railway and Florida transportation memorabilia, as well as Miami memorabilia and Floridiana. Dr. Bramson will grace us with his presence for the first time in Hastings, discussing ‘The Florida East Coast Railway: America’s Speedway to Sunshine for Over 125 Years.’ This renowned historian and author will delve into the profound impact and legacy of Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway on the foundation and growth of Hasting.”

Original Highwaymen Artists

“Adding historical depth and authenticity, two of the original Highwaymen artists, R. L. Lewis and Curtis Arnett will take center stage, enchanting attendees with live art demonstrations and guest appearances from 10 AM to 3 PM.

This infusion of heritage and artistry adds a unique dimension to an already remarkable event.”
