SUMMARY:Arts Evening 2023- POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:After consulting with several weather sources\, speaking with the US National Weather Service New Orleans Louisiana\, and talking with many of the bands\, artists and Olde Towne business owners\, we have made the decision to postpone Arts Evening 2023. This is due to the almost 90% chance of severe thunderstorms (with lightning\, wind gusts and possible hail) forecast for Saturday night.\n\n\n\nThis was not an easy choice to make\, and there are many factors to consider. Number one is public safety and our concern for the artists\, bands and businesses who will be setting up and preparing for Arts Evening in the middle of a thunderstorm.\n\n\nThe Slidell Big Shot: Zulu 2023 Big Shot Meets Slidell Royalty Mardi Gras Costume Exhibit opening reception will continue as planned on Saturday\, April 15\, from 5 to 7 p.m. at 2065 Second Street next to Slidell City Hall in Olde Towne. Please join us!\n\n\n\nAs for the Arts Evening plans\, we will shift over all of the artists and bands to White Linen and Lagniappe on Saturday\, August 12. Please save the date and we hope that you will be able to join us!\n\nSlidell Mayor Greg Cromer invites everyone to come out and enjoy an exciting evening of arts and entertainment in Olde Towne at the City of Slidell’s annual Arts Evening\, one of the largest and most celebrated cultural festivals on the Northshore. The festivities begin on Saturday\, April 15th\, from 5 to 9 p.m. in Olde Towne Slidell. Admission is free.

SUMMARY:Slidell's Big $hot- Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The City of Slidell is honored to host “Slidell’s Big Shot: Zulu Big Shot\n2023 Meets Slidell Royalty” a Mardi Gras costume exhibit featuring\nTerrance McGuire’s Zulu Big Shot costume. His wife Hyacinth’s costume\nwill also be on display\, along with other Zulu memorabilia. \nThe Zulu Social Aid and Pleasure Club was formed in 1909 and the Krewe\nis known for their colorful floats and elaborate costumes. Their signature\nthrow\, hand-painted coconuts\, are highly sought after each year.\nZulu’s Big Shot character was created in the 1930’s by member Paul E.\nJohnson. The role of the Big Shot is to one-up the King\, by throwing more\nelaborate parties and wearing flashy clothing. The Big Shot is second\nonly to the King. \nMardi Gras costumes worn by Slidell Mardi Gras royalty will also be on\ndisplay. The costumes are on loan from the Slidell Mardi Gras Museum\,\nfrom the collection of museum curator Bonnie Vanney. \n“Terrance is the first Zulu Big Shot from Slidell and we are honored to\nhave the opportunity to display his costume in the City of Slidell\,” said\nSlidell Mayor Greg Cromer. “I would like to thank Terrance and his family\,\nBonnie Vanney and the Slidell Mardi Gras Museum\, and the staff of the\nDept. of Cultural & Public Affairs for putting together this exhibit for\nour citizens.” \nThe opening reception will be held at 5 p.m. in conjunction with the City\nof Slidell’s 29th annual Arts Evening\, a large art block party featuring\nartists\, live entertainment\, fine and casual dining and unique shopping\nopportunities in Olde Towne Slidell.
