NOCCA Foundation

2019 ART&SOUL Gala

On Saturday, March 23, the Arlene and Joseph Meraux Charitable Foundation and Ajax Holdings presented ART&SOUL, a benefit for The NOCCA Institute, chaired by Boo and Clayton Randle and alumna Sophia Germer (Visual Arts, ’11). The Patron Party, sponsored by Ajax Holdings, featured entertainment from NOCCA alums Alexis and the Samurai. Delectable delights came from 28 local restaurants, caterers, and cafes, including NOCCA’s Culinary Arts students, who prepared seafood provided by the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board. The ART&SOUL Gala was alive with entertainment from NOCCA alumni and students including the Sasha Masakowski Family Quartet, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Chicken Wing Side Show, and current students from NOCCA Jazz, Visual Arts and Creative Writing. We thank everyone for joining in.
