FRESH & LOCAL Oh, how the time does fly! It's been six months since we've opened up our umbrellas in the historic French Market for our new Wednesday market. Every Wednesday from 2-6 p.m. you can find us in the Quarter with many of your favorite vendors from our other three markets and some new ones as well! From seasonal veggies and fruit, to seafood, baked goods, plant starts, and much more, our vendors are working hard to bring fresh local food back to the oldest public market in the nation, and to French Quarter, Trem?, Marigny and Bywater neighborhoods. Whether you're in the neighborhood and want to walk or bike over, or you're coming from across town and want to take advantage of the free two hour parking in the French Market parking lot, come on out and celebrate six months of fresh local food in the Quarter with us this Wednesday!
PICK OF THE WEEK: VEGGI'S EARTH DAY FARMRAISER! Our very own Thursday market vendors, VEGGI Farmers Co-op, are having an Earth Day Farmraiser this Saturday, April 25th from 11a.m. - 2p.m. Come out to our Saturday market, then head out to New Orleans East and check out Veggi's new farm site, meet the farmers who work the land, and enjoy some eats and drinks from some of the fine local restaurants that serve VEGGI produce on a regular basis. For more info or to RSVP, click here. See you then! MARKET HAIKUS WITH THE NEW ORLEANS PUBLIC LIBRARY! Just like every last Saturday of the month, we'll be getting inspired this Saturday with some market-themed haiku writing. To make things even more fun, we'll have the New Orleans Public Library out with some books on haiku poetry and writing tips for us. Come on out and get poetic with us! TUESDAY'S GREEN PLATE SPECIAL It's been great having Hillel's Kitchen out this month under the GPS tent!

Check out more info here.
RECIPE OF THE WEEK We were so excited to see that the Monica's brought the year's first crop of squash with them last week. In honor of their arrival, come out to market, pick some up for yourself and try out this Spicy Squash Pancake recipe! Spicy Squash Pancakes
Use one type or a combination of zucchini, pattypan and yellow squash. Adjust how hot you want the cakes by adjusting the amount of hot pepper and seeds you use. Prepare small pancakes for an appetizer or side dish, or make larger ones and serve with crusty bread and Salsa Fresca (recipe below) for a full meal. 3 eggs 4 cups grated summer squash 1 cup fresh corn kernels, cut from 2 ears 1/4 cup chopped green onions 1 large jalapeno pepper, minced 1/3 cup parmesan cheese 1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese 1/3 cup all-purpose flour ? cup bread crumbs 1 tablespoons olive oil Black pepper to taste Oil for saut?ing
In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Grate squash and squeeze out water. Mix in squash, corn, green onions, jalapeno, the cheeses, flour, bread crumbs, olive oil and ground pepper. Heat two tablespoons oil in a heavy 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. For small cakes, spoon one tablespoon squash mixture per cake into the hot oil and flatten to uniform thickness. For large cakes, use two tablespoons of squash mixture per cake. Do not over crowd the skillet. Leave about an inch between cakes.
Salsa Fresca (Serves 6)
3 large slicing tomatoes, seeded and chopped 2 clove garlic, minced 1 cup green onions, minced 3 T lime juice 3 T fresh chopped cilantro 1 large jalape?o, seeded and minced 1 T olive oil Salt to taste
Prepare all ingredients. Mix and serve. If you plan to store the sauce in the refrigerator, place it in a jar and pour a tablespoon of oil over the top. Makes about 4 cups.

Sacred Creatures, Beloved Pets: Ancient Egyptian Animal Mummies
-
Tuesday, April 21, 2015, 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
The relationship between humans and animals has always been complex with mutual dependencies that are practical, psychological, and even theological. Ancient Egyptian animal mummies are a particular manifestation of this complex web of inter-relations.
This lecture presents the different types of animal mummies (food, pets, votive offerings, sacred creatures, and 'other') and explains how and why they were made, the theological and aesthetic decisions that went into their 'packaging,' what each type meant to the ancient Egyptians, and how they reflect the ways in which the Egyptians interacted with the animal world, and how even today they influence our view of the ancient Egyptians and influence contemporary thought and art.
This lecture is co-sponsored by the Louisiana Interest Group of the American Research Center in Egypt and the Center for Scholars at Tulane University.

CITY OF NEW ORLEANS ISSUES FILMING NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS NEW ORLEANS - Today, the Mayor's Office of Cultural Economy issued filming notices to New Orleans residents in the French Quarter and Algiers for April 21 through Wednesday, April 22, 2015. French Quarter On Tuesday, April 21 through Wednesday, April 22, 2015, a production company will film exterior scenes on Chartres Street. As a result, the street will close from 1:00 a.m. until 4:00 a.m. 21 
CITY OF NEW ORLEANS TO HOLD ABANDONED VEHICLE AUCTION NEW ORLEANS - On Tuesday, April 21, 2015, the City of New Orleans Department of Public Works will hold its second abandoned vehicle auction of 2015. The auction, located at Almonaster Auto Pound, 10200 Almonaster Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70127, will begin at 9:00 a.m. Since May 2010, the City of New Orleans has held 19 vehicle auctions, selling 2,189 abandoned cars and contributing over $1,515,495 to the City's General Fund. As in prior auctions, the buyer will pay a $50 administrative fee which gets the buyer a notarized title at time of payment. This feature has been extremely well received by the public as the buyers no longer have to take all of the documentation to the Division of Motor Vehicles to apply for a new title. This process has proven to save residents time and streamlines their purchase. The current auction will have 113 vehicles for sale, all of which have been discarded on neighborhood streets or left unclaimed by residents with excessive parking fines and fees. Abandoned vehicles take up parking spaces needed for traffic circulation, contribute to a sense of neglect in neighborhoods, and can become junked harborages for rats and mosquitoes. To combat this quality of life nuisance, the City of New Orleans Department of Public Works towed 4,467 vehicles in the first quarter of 2015. Online Bidding: Introduced in March 2009, the City will continue use of its online bidding feature. Residents interested in online bidding need to register with Proxibid prior to the auction start time by visiting www.brownsauction.com. The online bidding feature allows residents to preview and pre-bid on any vehicle prior to the live auction, get vehicle information online by entering the vehicle information number (VIN), and bid on vehicles from anywhere in the world as the auction proceeds live from the Almonaster Auto Pound. All prospective buyers must register before viewing. A refundable $50 fee is required to view and/or bid on any vehicle during the auction. The fee will be applied to any purchase made or refunded if no purchase is made. Brown's Auction Company from Lafayette, LA, is the State of Louisiana's licensed, authorized dealer and conducts auctions on all City of New Orleans equipment. Individuals interested in purchasing a car are encouraged to pre-register today and to arrive early on Thursday as many cars sell within the first few minutes of the auction. Quick Facts * All vehicle information is currently on Brown's Auction Web site, www.brownsauction.com. Per the terms of the contract, the available vehicle list includes the VIN, make, model, and lien holder information. Any auction-related questions should be directed to Brown's Auction Company at (337) 457-4919. * The current auction has been advertised since Friday, April 17, 2015. * Prior to the auction, attempts are made to contact the vehicle's owner or lien holder before the vehicles are added to the auction list. Vehicle owners or lien holders that pay all fines and fees are able to retrieve their vehicles prior to the auction.

If payment is not received, the purchased vehicle will be placed on the list for the next scheduled auction, the buyer's $50 deposit is forfeited and the bidder is barred from participation in future auctions. * A $50 administrative fee will be added for each purchased vehicle which gives the buyer a notarized title to that vehicle * City employees and relatives of City employees are forbidden from purchasing any vehicles at the auction.

Great Books Discussion Group - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
A/V Conference Room, East Bank Regional Library, Metairie
In this classic of the 1960s, Ken Kesey's hero is Randle Patrick McMurphy, a boisterous, brawling, fun-loving rebel who swaggers into the world of a mental hospital and takes over. A lusty, life-affirming fighter, McMurphy rallies the other patients around him by challenging the dictatorship of Nurse Ratched. He promotes gambling in the ward, smuggles in wine and women, and openly defies the rules at every turn. But this defiance, which starts as a sport, soon develops into a grim struggle, an all-out war between two relentless opponents: Nurse Ratched, back by the full power of authority, and McMurphy, who has only his own indomitable will.

Indywood Theater
628 Elysian Fields
Indywood's grand mission is to foster local filmmaking culture. Every month we do a Local Film Night. The filmmakers in our neighborhood send in short films that they've made around New Orleans, and we screen the cream of the crop. After the screening we have a talk back with the filmmakers.

SAMURAI COP! The absolute infallibility of his crime fighting instincts reveal a mind one might expect of a man raised by a herd of brain damaged goats. But if you're looking for tips on romance, you're going to wanna bring a notepad and 2 pens, because he knows how to make a woman feel special. And yes, sometimes that involves murdering the neighbor's chicken. No matter what shape the suave stylings of Samurai Cop's wooing take on, you can bet it's gonna lead to the chamber of love... for some of the most incredibly awful soft-core make-out scenes ever put to film. In the end, there's just no way to lose when SAMURAI COP is part of your night. The outtakes are the only takes, y'all. And if this brand of unforgivably bad writing, directing, cinematography, editing and ACTING doesn't make you love movies in a whole new way, than you, my friend, are without joy in your life. The Tale of Princess Kaguya I am just so happy, soooooo happy!!!! to be able to screen this film another week. I love this film so much. I really hope everyone in New Orleans comes to see it. If you haven't seen this film, you simply must. It will give you strength to love life and be a good human for years to come. When I saw this film the first time, it was life-changing. I wrote this on our facebook page: Wow. I just watch Princess Kaguya for the first time. Written words cannot describe the power of that film. Man...if only American animation was able to portray the human spirit with such simplicity and breadth. I once read a good definition of beauty: that which is simple in its means and rich in its results. Kaguya soaked me in and in a high flying moment at the end something snapped on me and I began weeping uncontrollably at the painfulness of the beauty of life. No film has ever done that to me. It's never been as difficult to land back in the real world. Kaguya is based on an ancient folk tale. And the film translates the the spiritual gravity of the story with immaculate precision. That's the best my fumbling words can describe it. I'm so happy that this film exists. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night This movie is so cool. So bad ass. From the cinematography and the music, it feels like a John Wayne western, but it's so much more than that. It's every hipster feminists' wet dream (Me included! As the male side of Indywood, I proudly call myself a feminist! And most people would probably call me a hipster...and I love this movie!). "Middle Eastern feminist vampire romance" is likely to remain an underpopulated cinematic subgenre, but at least it now has a luminous standard-bearer in "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night." A sly, slinky creeper set in an imaginary Iranian underworld - appropriately realized in glistening black and white - U.S.-based writer-director Ana Lily Amirpour's auspicious debut feature spices its genre stew with elements of Lynchian neo-noir and even spaghetti Western, but the film's pointed, contemporary gender politics are very much its own. No film that revels in extended shots of a poker-faced, hijab-clad Nosferata cruising the streets for blood on a slow-rolling skateboard can be said to be playing things entirely straight, but Amirpour's film also avoids the midnight-madness irreverence that its genre-mashing premise might have invited. Neither, for all of its still-of-the-desert-night atmosphere, is "Girl" an entirely cold-hearted exercise, as it etches a sweet, sad and solemnly fatalistic love story between feeding times. - Variety, Guy Lodge
