With 125 days to go until Super Bowl LIX, a recent article in FastCompany magazine highlights how New Orleans and Louisiana are leveraging the game to make the city more accessible for all.

As the story highlights, while a recent study named New Orleans the country’s most walkable city (and #4 in the world), that level of ease in getting around isn’t the case for everyone—especially Americans with disabilities, mobility or otherwise. That’s why a combination of infrastructure improvements — fixing the sidewalks, repairing the streets, and making sure the curb cuts are ADA compliant — as well as improved communication, will help ensure differently abled fans have a great experience. 

Highlighted accessibility improvements include:

• Tens of millions of dollars of sidewalk repairs for better wheelchair access, throughout downtown New Orleans and the French Quarter
• Dozens of new American Disability Act (ADA) compliant curb cuts at intersections
• Removing sidewalk impediments in the French Quarter, like A-frame signs, via improved code enforcement
• Close to $500M of Super Dome improvements, which include additional accessible seating and new accessible pathways through the stadium
• Further, Rep. Troy Carter secured $5.5 million in May to study ways to improve New Orleans streetcars’ accessibility

In this hilarious 90-minute show, two performers play 13 roles – not to mention the piano – in a witty and winking homage to old-fashioned murder mysteries. ONE ACTOR investigates the crime. THE OTHER plays all of the suspects. And THEY BOTH play the piano. You won’t want to miss this killer musical comedy!

Officer Marcus Moscowicz is a small town policeman with dreams of making it to detective. One fateful night, shots ring out at the surprise birthday party of Great American Novelist Arthur Whitney and the writer is killed…fatally. With the nearest detective an hour away, Marcus jumps at the chance to prove his sleuthing skills – with the help of his silent partner, Lou. But whodunit? Did Dahlia Whitney, Arthur’s scene-stealing wife, give him a big finish? Is Barrette Lewis, the prima ballerina, the prime suspect? Did Dr. Griff, the overly-friendly psychiatrist, make a frenemy? Marcus only has a short amount of time to find the killer and make his name before the real detective arrives…and the ice cream melts!

Croatia has a rich wine culture that stretches back over 2,500 years, rooted in ancient traditions passed down from the Illyrians, Greeks, and Romans. In recent years, Croatian wines have gained international acclaim for their quality and unique indigenous grape varieties, shaped by the country's diverse geography and climate. The country's wine regions are broadly divided into four key areas: Dalmatia, Istria and Kvarner, Slavonia and the Danube, and the Croatian Uplands. Each region offers its own distinctive characteristics, influenced by their varying climates, soils, and grape varieties.

Croatia is home to more than 130 indigenous grape varieties, many of which are unique to the country. Beyond Plavac Mali, Malvazija Istarska, and Graševina, other notable varieties include Vugava, a rare white grape from the island of Vis that produces full-bodied wines with tropical fruit notes, and Debit, a versatile white grape from Dalmatia used for both dry and sweet wines. Bogdanuša, from the island of Hvar, is another indigenous white variety traditionally associated with religious celebrations.

The styles of Croatian wines are as diverse as the regions themselves, ranging from refreshing dry whites to rustic, robust reds and even unique dessert wines - and recently, orange wines have been gaining popularity.  Croatia’s rising reputation as a wine destination is enhanced by its beautiful wine regions, historic vineyards, and small, family-run wineries. Wine tourism, particularly in Istria, is thriving, with visitors exploring wine roads, sampling local food pairings, and visiting ancient vineyards set against breathtaking landscapes. This blend of tradition and innovation is helping Croatian wines make their mark on the global wine stage.

Sara Sparks from Lirette Selections will host this fun and informative tasting. Lirette Selections has made a big commitment to Croatian wines and has the largest portfolio in the state. We hope you'll join us! You can sign up here, Croatia

Nickel-A-Dance Fall 2024 Season to Begin on Frenchmen Street

by: OffBeat Staff

The fall 2024 season of Nickel-A-Dance, a beloved free traditional jazz concert series, is set to begin on September 29. For over three decades, Nickel-A-Dance has brought live jazz to the public, offering an afternoon of family-friendly entertainment on Sundays from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. This year, the series moves to a new location at Favela Chic, located at 525 Frenchmen Street, continuing its tradition on this famous music corridor.

Originally started in 1994, Nickel-A-Dance has become a staple for fans of New Orleans jazz who may not frequent nightclubs. It attracts a diverse crowd, including children, families, and seniors, all coming together to celebrate traditional jazz as America’s original dance music. This fall’s lineup will feature some of the city’s most renowned jazz musicians.

Next, on October 13, Mark Braud and His Sunday Night All-Stars will take the stage. Braud, part of the musical Brunious and Santiago families, has been a fixture in the New Orleans jazz scene since his youth. He has performed with Harry Connick Jr., Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and many other notable artists. His band will bring a blend of traditional jazz and contemporary flair to the series.

Lars Edegran and The Palm Court Jazz All-Stars are set to perform on October 20. Edegran, originally from Sweden, has been a New Orleans resident since 1966 and is known for his versatility on piano, guitar, and banjo. He has worked with jazz greats like Earl Hines and George Lewis, and his band will showcase the best of New Orleans traditional jazz.

The fall series will conclude on October 27 with Gregg Stafford and The Jazz Hounds. Stafford, a respected trumpeter and vocalist, has led several prominent New Orleans jazz bands, including Danny Barker’s Jazz Hounds and the Young Tuxedo Brass Band. He has dedicated his career to preserving the musical traditions of New Orleans and remains an active figure in the city’s jazz community.

Warren A Bell is with Julius Evans and 6 others
