Mona Lisa Saloy will sign her book entitled "Red Beans and Ricely Yours."
"These narrative poems tell the day-to-day lives of Black New Orleans and the rare magic in the culture. Vibrant with local history and color, these poems have a Black sensibility that reaches beyond boundaries, with folk sayings turned into polished verse. From Black talk to verse forms, Mona Lisa Saloy never loses sight of the African American cultural roots of her community. She makes music in verse."

7:00 p.m.
NEW ORLEANS, LA—Renowned artist Frank Kelley Jr., a native of West Monroe, Louisiana, and recipient of numerous awards and national recognition for his art, will be in New Orleans as a part of Ashé Cultural Arts Center’s and the National Performance Network’s Artist Residency program. Kelley will be in residency at Audubon Charter Middle School, 719 S. Carrollton Avenue in New Orleans, January 11-15, 2010, from 3:15 until 4:45 p.m. daily. The residency culminates with an art showing on January 16 at Ashé Cultural Arts Center, 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard, where Audubon’s students, grades 4 through 8, will display their work at 4:00 p.m., followed by a lecture and showing by Kelley at 7:00 p.m.
In his residencies with children, Kelley uses art to assist them with practicing and improving their
writing skills. Kelley teaches students to use art as a tool to express emotion. He wants them to know that an artist lives within each of them, delivering the message--“If I can do it, you can do it.” He has inspired young artists to espouse the artist within, while developing, and using their innate artistic skills of expression to deal with often debilitating and depressive issues. He is said to be captivating, not only to children, but also to adults.Kelley’s work has been featured in numerous publications, namely Art & Antiques, Portfolio, Louisiana Road Trips, Images, Louisiana Life, Décor, and Delta Style. He was one of 25 artists featured in Colors to Life Beautiful, an exhibit in conjunction with the production The Color Purple, a production in which his piece entitled Survivor (left) appeared.
Kelley’s work hangs on walls around the country. But close to home, he is proud to share that Louisiana’s own Senator Mary Landrieu has purchased his art for the walls of both her home and Washington office.

For the tenth consecutive year, the Boulevard comes alive as Ashé Cultural Arts Center and GoodWork Network join with musicians, actors, merchants, and the community to create an amazingly entertaining holiday festival and marketplace in Central City New Orleans. The festival brings together a mix of jazz, hip-hop, r&b, gospel, folk, reggae, along with theater and dance. Holiday on the Boulevard’s events will occur on Saturday, December 5, and Sunday, December 6, 2009 at Ashé which is located at 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd., and at GoodWork Network, 1824 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd.
One of the highlights of the festival is when Ashé’s holiday icons, Mama YeYe & Baba Kwanzaa, meet Santa & Mrs. Claus. Led by a brass band, the couples second line from GoodWork Network to Ashé where they are met by festival participants who join in the second line.
Voices Not Forgotten, another feature not to be missed, spotlights the senior citizens (ages 62 to 94) from the Central City Senior Center. These ladies and gentlemen infuse oral histories, backed by videography, into their song-and-dance routines and are known for not only packing the house, but “bringing it down” with a foot-stomping audience that always begs for more. They offer gospel, R&B, and humorous testimonies.
The festival also includes a marketplace which gives festival-goers the opportunity to purchase gifts from local merchants and artisans, and enjoy food prepared by local vendors.
Good Work Network’s Youth Marketplace will feature youth, ages 7-21, who have participated in entrepreneurship training provided by GoodWork Network. The training culminates with “real-world” selling on December 5, at Holiday on the Blvd. Along with other young people, they will sell affordable food items and hand-made holiday gifts.
