NEW ORLEANS – This month’s Sippin’ In The Courtyard will benefit Make Music NOLA, an intensive music-for-social-change program, that provides focused, tuition-free, in-school and after-school music training to students who are eligible for free or reduced lunch at six charter schools and three community centers in East New Orleans, Central City, the Ninth Ward, Mid-City and Riverbend.
The event takes place on Wednesday, Sept. 27, at The Maison Dupuy Hotel, 1001 Toulouse St., from 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., and will feature New Orleans famed clarinetist Tim Laughlin.
Sippin’ attendees can purchase raffle tickets to win baskets of prizes including overnight stays, dinners, bar tabs and other items provided by The Maison Dupuy. All proceeds from raffle ticket sales will be donated to Make Music NOLA that began in September 2011 under the name “Youth Orchestra of the Lower Ninth Ward” with only five students. Since then, the program has expanded to nine locations, including four in-school programs and five after school programs.
There is no admission charge and the event offers happy hour prices for featured cocktail, wine and small plates.
Complimentary parking is based on availability.
