Live entertainment is provided by The Agency specializing in authentic versions of rock, soul, and motown classic hits from the 50s, 60s and 70s. A crowd favorite, The Agency has become a Shrimp Cook-Off tradition! Vendors offering a wide variety of crafts, collectibles or that elusive object d’arte add to the day’s experience.
