6 to 8 p.m.-Mix, mingle, drink and eat at The New Orleans Museum of Art. And new this year because no one was ready for it to end last year: 8 to 10 p.m. after-party in the Sydney & Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden. FREE! Free drinks, food and music! What is Culture Collision? It 's a unique event that brings together New Orleans' cultural organizations for a one-of-a-kind happy hour around the New Orleans art scene --visual, musical, performing, and all kinds of arts included. Over 1,300 people turned out for last year's event, so we have expanded to accommodate the crowds. Performances by the Acoustic Duo, Courtyard Kings, and the after-party will feature the musical stylings of DJ Matty, a favorite at local nightspots, including The Saint, Mimi's, and The Saturn Bar. Light fare will be provided by Café Degas, Eat NOLA, Matt and Naddie's, and Ralph's on the Park. Several cash bars will also be available. Giveaways throughout the evening courtesy of the 23 participating cultural organizations!
