July is almost here, and that means it’s almost time for one of my Top Ten Musical Festivals:Essence Music Festival. Summer sun, New Orleans food and music create a recipe for fun! If you love Rhythm and Blues and Hip Hop, then this is the festival for you. Many artists will grace the stage in the Superdome and the Super Lounges will be filled with even more artists to help you overdose on music. In addition to the incredible music line up, Essence Fest will include seminars to empower attendees to transform your life, your soul, and your community.
If you are in town for Essence weekend, be sure to come to the New Orleans Museum of Art in City Park, and check out “Ancestors of Congo Square,” which is on view until July 17. http://www.noma.org/exhibitions.html#ancestors – YouTube: http://youtu.be/IOCbhkzYJBE
