ANNE ASHLEY, THE NEW SOUTH: A POST-KATRINA REIMAGINING OF THE CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAG
Although the Confederate flag is a divisive symbol in the ongoing dialogue on race relations in the South, it is exactly these issues that this work seeks to address by bringing them to the forefront of artistic dialogue on the subjects of social justice, equality and ethnicity in the modern South.

February 3, 5 - 10 PM:
Becoming Artfully AWARE: Linking Local Communities and International Visitors through the Arts
Featuring artwork created by the Belle Reve community under the instruction of local artist, Mike Kilgore. These works will be re-exhibited at the Uptown Pop Up Art Gallery during the month of February.
Artfully AWARE will take over the New Orleans Museum of Art for a special event. For a night that will celebrate the rich diversity of New Orleans, children and adults from across the community and the world have contributed artwork and creative writing that will be displayed in the Great Hall and surrounding galleries. The evening begins with a performance by the Mardi Gras Indian tribe, the Guardians of the Flame. Michael Watson, the musical director of Irvin Mayfield's Jazz Playhouse, will play with a four-piece band, and the New Orleans Dance Collective will perform an inspiring dance piece based on unity.
Visitors can interact with professional writers and artists from A Studio in the Woods, catch a literary reading organized by the Pirate's Alley Faulkner Society, listen to original poetry and prose read by students from the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, view photography that reflects the Sierra Club's local environmental efforts, hear speakers from the Young Leadership Council and watch short films selected by FosterBear Films that explore the vital role of the arts.
