Read MoreWhere Great Minds Think Alike
It’s safe to say that Louisianians know a good bit about festivals—they’re part of us, just like Mardi Gras and seafood. Here’s another festival, coming to Houma later this month, that you may want to add to your list. It’s a little different from the traditional festival. We can’t promise that there will be plenty of live music and food booths (don’t worry—they will feed you), but there...

Read MoreOn a Rock ’n’ Roll Buzz: The Baby Bee Interview
Imagine picking up a phone and calling John Lennon in late 1962, months before some band that he was in—The Beatles—recorded and released their debut EP, Please Please Me. Or think about what it must have been like to have known someone like Adam Levine before this group called Maroon 5 became as known around the house as names like Dawn and Aunt Jemima. That feeling actually hit me a few weeks back...

Read MoreSqueezing Out the Pulp
There are artists who do the easel and canvas thing. Then there are artists like Ellen C. McCord who prefer to take the unconventional route. Give her some recycled materials and a few plastic squeeze bottles—just like the ones that hold condiments at restaurants—and she’s good to go.

John Paul LeBoeuf has a lot to say. And he’s finally found the perfect way to say it. His art may not be flashy, but that’s not John. It’s a lot more gritty and real. There are no instruments, no other people occupying the stage. It’s straightforward, upfront and honest—and that might be a little surprising for those who know him. This is a different side of the man who has found his sight, his...

He was convinced that the day would eventually come when everybody would own a Buick and the plant would close down. There once was a man named Roy Burke. He was a gentle, Canadian lad who loved nothing more than working on the family farm and watching his dad operate and repair the machinery on it like a true pro. He was too small to get his hands involved—that opportunity would come much later. In...

Natalie Lindsay is filling a void for children in the Houma community. Since the Mighty Kids Triathlon was first offered in 2011, kids in the area have been able to participate in something that had never been offered before. “Being a caregiver, it always bothered me to see the amount of overweight kids and those kids who were not active,” Natalie says. “I have my own children, and I wanted them...

Read MoreAt The Top Of The Class: Three Educators You Should Know
There are those among us who have answered a higher calling. Their hours are long and undocumented. They often run on not enough sleep. And their contributions to our society often go unnoticed. But they are some of the most vital professionals in our modern society. They are teachers. These are the people who have a hand in shaping children, molding them into the adults they will become. They have a hand...

Read MoreBelle Impasto
Stacey Fabre knew she was going to be an artist at a very young age. A blank canvas or a piece of paper was exciting to her—they were endless possibilities to show off her inspirations and personal interpretations. Raised in New Orleans, Stacey has always been fascinated by the architecture, history, smells, foods and happenings of the city. She fondly remembers growing up on the East Bank, looking...
