Located in the Waterfront Shops in Duck, Donna Designs offers a unique Outer Banks shopping opportunity. Specializing in wearable art, owner Donna Haddon has been hand painting designs for resort clothing for more than 25 years. Her one-of-a-kind creations make her resort clothing irresistible. Donna uses several techniques to paint on clothing, including free hand, batik, airbrush and gyotaku. Her signature method is a mix between block print and screen print. The result of her art is clothing with a truly Outer Banks feel – featuring everything from crabs and sea turtles to shorebirds, seashells and starfish. Donna’s signature item is a hand-painted ladies fashion tee. With a feminine fit, the store offers several styles to choose from, each with a unique design created by Donna herself. Donna Designs carries top-notch clothing lines such as Jag Jeans, Nomadic Traders and Eucalyptus. The waterfront store also offers accessories such as purses, hats and jewelry. Shoppers can choose from popular jewelry brands such as Holly Yashi, Sea Glass by K-Bay, Lovell Designs by Ken Kantro and a local jewelry making group, Outer Banks Girl Friends.

This year, the Duck Jazz Festival proudly reaches its 16th anniversary, and with it, we unveil our artistic vision:“Duck Grooves: The Sound of Jazz,” is an electrifying celebration of jazz’s dynamic, ever-evolving nature, set against the stunning backdrop of the Currituck Sound. It’s a fusion of past, present, and future, where the timeless traditions of jazz intersect with the vibrancy of new, innovative sounds. Just as the sound of jazz flows and adapts, so too does the landscape of Duck where the rhythm of the music harmonizes with the natural beauty of the water and the surrounding environment.
