He is one of only a few of today’s native New Orleans born artists to continue the authentic traditional jazz style. Dr. White is noted for his classic New Orleans jazz clarinet sound\, for leading several popular bands\, and for his many efforts to preserve and extend the early jazz tradition. Dr. White is a relative of early generation jazz musicians\, including bassist Papa John Joseph\, clarinetist Willie Joseph\, and saxophonist and clarinetist Earl Fouche. \nWhite is also a jazz historian\, producer\, lecturer\, and consultant. He has developed and performed many jazz history themed programs. He has written and published numerous essays in books\, journals\, and other publications. For several years he served as a guest coach at the Juilliard Music School (Juilliard Jazz). He was the musical director for numerous Jazz at Lincoln Center concerts. He has been the traditional jazz consultant and coordinator for the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival since 1995. White has also had a long association of performing and recording with acclaimed trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. \n\nAbout Dawoud Bey: Elegy\nDawoud Bey: Elegy draws upon the factual and imagined realities of the early African American presence in the United States. Including forty-five black-and-white photographs and two film installations\, the exhibition elucidates the deeply profound historical memory still embedded in geography at historically significant sites in Virginia\, Louisiana and Ohio. Through the interweaving of three photographic series—”Stony the Road “(2023)\, “In This Here Place” (2019)\, and “Night Coming Tenderly\, Black” (2017)—Bey offers a framework through which to conceptualize the landscapes of Virginia\, Louisiana\, and Ohio (respectively) through images that convey the memories of our shared American past. \nLearn More \nThank You to Our Supporters\nNOMA at Night is supported in part by grant funds from Ruby K.

The first presentation of its kind\, New African Masquerades offers a rare look into contemporary West African masquerade by contextualizing the works of individual artists within a range of social\, economic\, and religious practices and examining their networks of viewership and exchange. \nLearn More \nAbout Kumasi\nKumasi is New Orleans’ own full Afrobeat orchestra. We fell in love with a style of music created over 50 years ago by Fela Kuti and Tony Allen\, and we bring it to the people of New Orleans with live shows\, as well as three recorded albums. You can expect lots of Fela Kuti tunes and some Afrofunk from ’70s Ghana and Benin in our live shows\, and we play and record our original music inspired by those styles. Our original songs are primarily of protest\, as well as vigilance toward change and collective growth\, but composed to make people move\, groove\, and be inspired. \nAbout Jer’Lisa Devezin\nJer’Lisa J. Devezin is an artist and educator born and raised in the Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans\, LA. She earned her BA from Dillard University and MFA from Southern Methodist University. Heavily influenced by her upbringing in the city\, Jer’Lisa’s work engages research through a black feminist lens centering identity\, sexuality\, Black studies\, and Southern culture\, specifically focusing on New Orleans and socioeconomics. \nThank You to Our Supporters\nNOMA at Night is supported in part by grant funds from Ruby K.
