Happy Hump Day w/the Square, a Market & Plenty of Music!

It's a beautiful Wednesday (that rain better stay away!!)  Celebrate the day with lots of good stuff going on 'round town!

Come on down to Lafayette Square for another stellar line-up for this year's Wednesday at the Square concert series....there will be crafts, food and libations....Karl Denson's Tiny Universe plus Robin Barnes get things movin' this evening at 5:00 pm - and check out the entire line-up so you can make your plans.

Head on over to Lakeview and the Harrison Avenue Marketplace presented by Beacon of Hope tonight from 5:00 pm to 8:30 pm in the parking lot of Lakeview Grocery at 801 Harrison Avenue.  You'll enjoy music by Dirty Play and come shop and support the local artists who can help you find that perfect something for you and your Mom (don't forget Mother's Day is Sunday!) There will be 75 arts, crafts and food vendors along with the Bayou Gaming Truck hosted by St. Paul's. You can enjoy the famous char-grilled oysters from Drago's or Baked Alaska from Antoine's. Stop by the Beacon Beverage booth to enjoy a refreshing libation from an array of thirst quenchers. Try the new Velvet Cactus Margarita-frozen or on the rocks! It's going to a fun evening!
