THIS CELEBRATION IS MORE THAN A HOLIDAY GATHERING IT’S A CELEBRATION OF US.
Join us for an evening of light, music, and community as we close out 2025 together.
The celebration begins at 6:00 PM outside on Bayou Road with a free, open-to-all kickoff. Watch the André Cailloux Center come alive as projections dance across the walls and columns glow, while Chic Nouvelle models from Afri Modiste add a touch of dazzling flair. Then, at 6:30 PM, step inside to continue the festivities. Enjoy a performance by Opera Créole, delicious bites from our partner Loretta's Pralines, portrait caricatures by YAMS artists, a special holiday raffle, and specialty cocktails at The Sanctuary Bar by Justini's. Cozy up with hot cocoa, or add a spirited twist courtesy of Justini's while you bask in the atmosphere.
Bring friends and family to celebrate the season together; our holiday gathering is a joyful way to experience community, creativity, and the spirit of giving.
A suggested donation of $25 or more grants access to indoor programming, allowing guests to enjoy all performances, demonstrations, holiday treats, and specialty cocktails.
