Last year was my first time at Sips n Spirits and it was so beautiful. I loved seeing the neighborhood all lit up, the garden full of friends and art lovers, and feeling a deep sense of community. It was a special night and I’m looking forward to this year even more.

I’ve served on many Boards of Directors & attended countless fundraisers over the years for those organizations on whose Boards I served, as well as many others. The 2023 Sips N Spirits, annual NOAAM fundraiser, was hands down one of the best I’ve ever attended. The food & music were amazing, as always, but more importantly, the warm positive energy of all who attended was inspiring, to say the least! Everyone seemed energized about supporting our ever-improving, ever-growing NOAAM & its stellar, cutting-edge programming. The crowd that attended spanned all ages & ethnic groups in New Orleans, a truly supported community event. I’m proud & humbled to play a small part in the dedicated Board & staff’s many achievements over the last 5 years. Come out & join us at Sips N Spirits Dec 2024. You won’t be disappointed!
