Miss New Orleans is currently making her way to the vernissage at the Galerie dans la Cave in Cadrieu, France. Laury of Soar Dream France has masterminded the show:
I Know what it Means to Miss New Orleans
The curator lived in the Crescent City for many years, but fled to France during Katrina and made Cadrieu her new home after the storm. We met a few years ago though the magical world of blogging and our mutual appreciation for New Orleans. We hope to meet one day in real life, but in the meantime she has met one of my friends, Katia in Germany. It is indeed a small and wondrous world.
On the reverse side of the assemblage you will discover a hand written scroll with words that are quintessential New Orleans. If you've lived there or visit often, you will probably know many. If not, you must one day discover what they mean for yourself!
