Coming off a whirlwind Super Bowl and Carnival, as we transition to spring, we find ourselves focusing on the coziness of home and where our hearts lie. This month, we share a stunning Uptown family home designed by Betsey Hazard, with a touching backstory. Our second feature focuses on the art of collecting and filling your space with things that not only hold value to you, but are also worthy investments. We spoke with experts at Lucullus, Merchant House, Crescent City Auction and M.S. Rau for great advice when sourcing pieces to cherish and admire. Every collection tells a story.
As always, we’ve curated a selection of the best events in town, from fundraisers covered on our party pages to exciting cultural events and happenings in our Arts Calendar and Around Town pages.Â
We also bring you stylish picks from Amy Gabriel in this month’s Fashion and What’s Hot, a tasty Ramos Gin Fizz recipe you won’t want to miss and the latest buzz on creatine in our Wellness column.
Our March cover highlights a very special milestone for NOCCA (New Orleans Center for Creative Arts) as they celebrate their 5Oth anniversary, which will be marked at the ART&SOUL gala in May. For an amazing 50 years, the organization has nurtured talent and continues to contribute to the vibrancy of our culture in countless ways.
We hope you enjoy the issue!
