I have more pictures to share of my trip to New Orleans and the mural launch celebration (see previous post)! After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, we headed over to @antoinesnola for a cocktail hour. It was a beautiful reception, I met wonderful people throughout this whole event, the food and drink were delicious, lots of photos were had, speeches were made, and they even printed my digital illustration of the mural out on a backdrop as well as some cute cards which was a nice surprise! (Minus our moose friend, he was a very last-minute addition, a meant-to-be addition mind you, I can post my illustration of the whole mural at a later date.) I was also interviewed on their local news with Consul General of Canada, Dr. Rachel McCormick! I’m still processing how incredible this opportunity was and how lucky I am to have been a part of this, I’m so thankful. Its amazing to have such a connection to New Orleans. I took over 500 photos of this trip alone and I will be sharing more here and there (like on my personal acct and my stories). You betcha my Mom and I made a bucket list for the Big Easy and accomplished a heck of a lot of it, we totally went on a swamp tour and tried a lot of amazing new foods.
