Description

In New Orleans, we know that times of transition are best met with community and celebration. Our society’s transition from the Fossil Fuel Era is no different. Timed to precede the Jazz & Heritage Festival Presented by Shell, Fossil Free Festival will unite community for one week with art, food, music, film screenings, and workshops, carving out a dedicated and open space for us to dig deep into the ethics and complexities of funding art and education with fossil fuel money and to imagine a #FossilFreeCulture.

For full event description and schedule details, visit www.fossilfreefest.org
**FFF is free and open to the public**
