Tucked on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Ocean Springs is a town that consistently surprises visitors expecting just another beach community. Known as the City of Discovery, this beautifully walkable coastal village is home to one of the finest small-city arts scenes in the American South—nchored by the Walter Anderson Museum of Art, more than 200 independent galleries and shops, and the Peter Anderson Arts and Crafts Festival, the largest fine arts event in Mississippi.
