Tuesday Feb. 4 Krewe social at Holy Ground Irish Pub

NEW Krewe Monthly Meetup Location — The Holy Ground Irish Pub (3340 Canal Street, map), a spacious local Irish pub that serves dim sum! 
 
Drop in anytime between 6-8 p.m. on Tuesday Feb 4th. This is informal, no RSVP needed. Bring friends or family and relax, catch up on everything that has happened since Twelfth Night, and take a moment to relax before the Mardi Gras season takes off again!

Book cover: Lost and Found in Paris by Lian Dolan (2022)

Book Club Saturday Feb. 8, 11 a.m. at Cafe NOMA to discuss “Lost and Found in Paris”

Because this month’s book has an art history/art scavenger hunt theme, we are going to meet at Cafe NOMA, which is accessible without paying admission to NOMA. Check out the full menu here: Café NOMA Restaurant : Inside New Orleans Museum Of Art
 
Amy will reserve a table for attendees.  If you plan to attend, PLEASE email her at [email protected] by Feb. 7th.  NOTE: As this is a cafe, if you plan to join us, you must plan to purchase food or drink.  We strongly encourage only those who have read some or all of the book, or those who intend to read the book, so that we can have a lively discussion. While the book club allows plenty of time to socialize and talk in general about Joan, for this particular session, we need to be mindful of space.  We will continue to have book club meetups at various locations but for certain locations, due to limited space, we need to get a headcount. Thanks! 
 
After the discussion, those who wish to visit NOMA, view their small but impressive collection of medieval/Renaissance works, and do a brief scavenger hunt related to Joan of Arc (as a nod to the protagonist in our book), please join us!

5 p.m. Friday Feb. 28: Krewe de Jeanne d’Arc walks in Hermes

Open to 2025 and 2026 full members, foot soldiers, and selected invited groups: details and RSVP. 

Once in a lifetime chance — the Krewe of Hermes has created 26 beautiful original Kern Studio floats celebrating the story of Joan of Arc and has invited the Krewe de Jeanne d’Arc to walk in this parade, along with our young Maid of Honor. Hermes’s choice of this theme gives a true tribute to Joan and the special place she holds in the hearts of New Orleanians! We are honored to be the first other krewe the Krewe of Hermes has ever invited to join them. 

If you’re not walking with us, you may want to watch the Hermes parade or go to the float line-up at Magazine and Jefferson to view these gorgeous Joan of Arc floats and maybe catch some of the Hermes-Joan of Arc throws!
