The spirit of Nawlins Folks and the Xavier Alumni Crew was in full effect! Their annual Mardi Gras Gala was beautifully decorated, the prizes for the raffle were grand, and the second line was poppin’. DJ Def Jam Blaster
was rolling out the hits too and was excited and filled the dance floor.
The Houston area Xavier Alumni truly know how to invoke that hometown New Empowering and motivating were accurate descriptions of the emotions that were invoked as we experienced the Museum of Fine Arts Houston’s (MFAH) exhibit– Gordan Parks’ Stokely Carmicheal and Black Power, Alex Bracey and Transformative Culture.
I am pleased to share the invitation to a special young professionals evening at the MFAH celebrating the current exhibition, Gordon Parks: Stokely Carmichael and Black Orleans flair! All funds raised will be headed back to New Orleans as an annual gift to Xavier University from the Houston Alumni chapter. Congratulations Xavier Alumni for your commitment to giving back to your Alma Mater and keeping the New Orleans spirit alive in H-Town. Bon Temps Roule! Let the Good Times Roll!
