4th Annual Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo Festival May 22-23, once again being held on the banks of historic and beautiful Bayou St. John. Over the last three years our event has experienced tremendous growth. 2008 was a milestone year for what has quickly become one of South Louisiana's signature cultural celebrations. Last year as New Orleans celebrated our annual Festival over 20,000 locals and visitors reveled in music from three stages, dined on delicious food, sampled our unique local culture and enjoyed an art market showcasing the talents and creativity of our visual artists. Based on such great past success, we are projecting continued long term growth as we produce this year's last major music and art event before the long dog days of summer set in.

This year is a real turning point in our event's history as we strive to create harmony between our festival and the environment. The 2009 Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo becomes Louisiana's first green music and arts festival with Solar powe...

4th Annual Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo Festival May 22-23, once again being held on the banks of historic and beautiful Bayou St. John. Over the last three years our event has experienced tremendous growth. 2008 was a milestone year for what has quickly become one of South Louisiana's signature cultural celebrations. Last year as New Orleans celebrated our annual Festival over 20,000 locals and visitors reveled in music from three stages, dined on delicious food, sampled our unique local culture and enjoyed an art market showcasing the talents and creativity of our visual artists. Based on such great past success, we are projecting continued long term growth as we produce this year's last major music and art event before the long dog days of summer set in.

This year is a real turning point in our event's history as we strive to create harmony between our festival and the environment. The 2009 Mid-City Bayou Boogaloo becomes Louisiana's first green music and arts festival with Solar powe...

Downtown New Orleans | Corner of Magazine and Girod Street
With temperatures creeping up the thermometer and a long, hot summer ahead of us, it's more important than ever to stay hydrated. Last fall, AWS Water Filtration installed a reverse osmosis drinking system at our marketumbrella.org offices. Now, instead of selling bottled water, our markets are BYOB (bring your own bottle). Bring your own bottle to the market and we'll fill it for free with filtered municipal water. Or, purchase a CCFM go cup for $2 and we'll fill that up for free as many times as you like. AWS will join us at the market this Saturday to answer questions about their money saving, environmentally friendly reverse osmosis systems. For more information, visit AWS online.
We like the idea of this Corn and Peach Salsa with any number of things we might throw on the grill. A little sweet, a little spicy, this salsa is delicious with both grilled shrimp (Kay Brandhurst...
