COOL SPOT

Guests at the September event enjoyed cool treats, such as summery non-alcoholic drinks by Victory Bar, ice cream from Quintin, and Italian ice from Sunset Slush. Children were able to get in on the fun by playing in the green space and decorating their own fans to help “beat the heat.”

Created and Produced by the Creative Alliance of New Orleans

BLOOMS & BEATS

Blooms & Beats was designed to celebrate the fall planting season with demonstrations by experts and seedling giveaways. An African drumming interactive performance entertained youth and adults. Fall-themed cookies and treats, as well as apple cider, were available. Younger children were able to get creative at the kids’ table, where they colored pictures with Halloween and Autumn themes.
