NEW ORLEANS – Culture Collision will kick off New Orleans’ vibrant cultural season on Wednesday, September 2, 2015, from 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m., at The National WWII Museum's U.S. Freedom Pavilion: The Boeing Center.
Founded in 2008 by like-minded arts lovers Jess Brown and Janet Wilson, Culture Collision was created to provide New Orleans’ arts and culture organizations with a collective voice, as well as a platform for collaboration and promotion.
The one-night-only event will feature more than 65 local, nonprofit visual and performing arts organizations who are coming together to meet the public to network, make announcements for exclusive promotions, offer free giveaways and pop-up performances.
The event is free and open to the public.
The event also features a huge free drawing, complimentary hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar with happy hour specials.
Paid parking is available in the corner lot at Magazine Street and Andrew Higgins. Street parking and additional, non-museum pay lots are also located throughout the neighborhood.
Culture Collision 7 is hosted by WWNO and sponsored by DEVENEY, Dirty Coast, New Orleans & Me and The National WWII Museum. It is organized by a planning committee representing the Arts Council of New Orleans, DEVENEY, Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, New Orleans Ballet Association, New Orleans Opera Association, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, Southern Rep and WWNO.
