So, he photographed numerous residents for a photo essay that compares this community to Pellworm Island off Germany's coast. Mack's 144 photographs "Island People" will be on display at the new Core Sound Waterfowl Museum on Harkers Island from May 23 through July 6. The exhibit is part of the museum's Memorial Day celebration May 23 to 25. The celebration highlights the museum's new building at the end of Harkers Island. Participants also can view other exhibits, including the Core Sound collection of decoys and the Jean Dale, a Harkers Island-style boat designed by native Brady Lewis. In addition, there will be outdoor events for children, local crafts and carvers, music and an auction. On
