Avant Garden Winter Commencement set for December 17th. We also welcome Pecha Kucha Night following the day event.

Avant Garden is a semi-annual curated arts market hosted by Constance, a local arts organization. 

Featuring 60 artists, designers, makers and taste-makers from the New Orleans community, Avant Garden’s goal is to provide an alternative to the usual local Arts Markets by a process of individually inviting vendors that represent emerging talent in the city, enriching our cultural economy as a whole.

Pecha Kucha Night, is a place for young artists and thinkers to meet and show their work in public. 

Each of the 10 presenters are allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds - giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, the interest level up, and gives more people the chance to share ideas. It’s an informal night out with DJs, visual treats, and a chance to connect with ideas and creatives in our disparate community.

Avant Garden is hosted by the Joan Mitchell Center, located on 2275 Bayou Road. It will take place Saturday, December 17th, 11a-6p, and Pecha Kucha following from 7-9p, hosted by Sergio Padilla. The event is free and should be a wonderful turnout.

Feel free to RSVP on our Facebook event page.

We’ll be out at this installment of Avant Garden. We’ll have suiting, sport coats, blazers, ties, pocket squares, dress shirts, books, and various accessories and accoutrements. Look for us at the Standard Supply & Service Co. booth alongside Defend New Orleans and SMOKE.
