On almost every corner, the pulsating sounds of the city’s unique heritage and culture welcomes first time visitors to the Big Easy and preserves the loyalty of its citizens. As Lantern Light hosts its third annual gala, we celebrate the rhythmical expressions that make up the innovative vibrations of New Orleans and we also honor Hugo Kahn, longtime supporter of the ministry. The Mistress of Ceremonies for the evening is WGNO-TV’s reporter, Stephanie Oswald, and will feature great music compliments of Deacon John Moore and the Ivories and fine cuisine will be provided by local restaurants including Dooky Chase Restaurant, The Balcony, and Zea Rotisserie and Grill. The evening, which promises to be filled with fantastic food and fun, will also feature a silent and live auction filled with great items. This year’s Gala is sponsored by Jazz Sponsor, Aetna Better Health of Louisiana, and supports efforts to continue services for those who become homeless and the less fortunate.
