About Cedar Key Dolphin Project:
Our goal is to conserve bottlenose dolphins through research, collaboration, and education.
In 2001, Dr. Stefanie Gazda, then an M.S. student at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth under the guidance of Richard Connor, came to Cedar Key, Florida to study a feeding behavior a local fisherman had captured on video. This driver-barrier behavior was the first documented case of a division of labor with role specialization in a marine mammal, and the second one in any mammal.
From this research, the work has expanded to include the social structure, foraging ecology, and habitat use of these dolphins. The dolphins of Cedar Key hold a wealth of information and may provide valuable information on the health of the ecosystem of the Gulf of Mexico. Dolphins are a long-lived species and as a result are suited to long-term research studies. You can help with this goal by donating to the Cedar Key Dolphin Project. All proceeds will go directly towards research expenses.
Established in 1964 and formerly known as the Cedar Key Sidewalk Arts Festival, the Old Florida Celebration of the Arts returned to a juried fine art fair format in 2006. Over the past 15 years, the festival’s reputation has grown and it is now recognized as one of the top Small-Town Art Fairs in the nation. Welcoming only 100 high-quality artists and about 15-18,000 visitors annually, the event radiates a relaxed and friendly atmosphere often missing in larger venues. The island community of Cedar Key is surrounded by the Lower Suwannee and Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge on Florida’s Gulf Coast. This free event benefits the Cedar Key Arts Center, the coordinating sponsor, in addition to local non-profit and Cedar Key School groups who serve delicious food, beverages and goodies during the festival.
