The New Orleanian

Heron Arts is pleased to present The New Orleanian: A Nola inspired art, music, food, and spirits experience. We are honored to be partnering with the New Orleans Musicians' Clinic, a non-profit organization providing medical care and social services to musicians based in New Orleans. Together, we are proud to bring the Grammy award winning Rebirth Brass Band to Heron Alley in the SOMA district of San Francisco. We will be closing traffic on the alley to welcome Rebirth and all other things Nola. In tandem with this unique musical presentation, Heron Arts continues on its mission to promote and exhibit compelling contemporary art. We invite you to arrive early and view a curated group show presented in partnership with New Orleans-based Red Truck Gallery. The exhibition includes important works from Brian Dettmer, Jim Bachor, Matthew Cox, Ellen Greene, Kathy Halper, Krista Hoefle, Jeremiah Lee, Tom McDonald, Darrel Morris, Chris Roberts-Antieau, Bryan Cunningham, Adam Wallacavage, Tom Haney, Frank Relle, and Dan Barry. These artists all hold New Orleans as an important place in their artistic development. The work will remain on display through the evening performance. The event will also feature live mural painting on Berwick Place by Mike Shine, as well as an opening musical performance from Quinn DeVeaux.
