Walking through the Ocean Springs home of Libby and Buddy Gunn is like touring an art gallery. The
impressive home sits on five acres with gorgeous views of Davis Bayou, the Mississippi Sound and Deer Island. The Gunns are art enthusiasts and collectors, especially Libby who is on the board of the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art.
On October 3, the Gunns will host
the museum’s annual lawn gala, the first time it’s been in Ocean Springs. “We’ll have tents on the front and back lawns, antique cars and food by Chef Patrick of the Redding House,” Libby Gunn says with enthusiasm. “We have original art — along with many other items — for the silent auction. Guests can enjoy all that and see the house and the art and the view.” >>
