Participants will meet artists\, get creative\, and immerse themselves in New Orleans’s creative community. \nThe Lilli Lewis Project\nLilli Lewis. Photo by Liz Hogan. \nAs the story goes\, Lilli Lewis should never have been. Before she was born\, Lewis’s mother was told her baby probably wouldn’t survive due to lung trouble\, so the fact that Lewis now makes a living singing with those same lungs is a gift she never takes for granted. Lewis uses her voice to bring what she calls sacred songs into profane spaces\, and though she’s abandoned trying to define her sound\, she hopes her audiences leave shows knowing two things: that they are brilliant as they are\, and that they have the ability to use that brilliance to make a better world. \nThe Lilli Lewis Project is more than a band. It’s a pan-generational cult of radical decency that delivers heart-throbbing\, earnest rock and soul that “makes you want to put your hands in the air\, shout hallelujah and shake your booty for the rest of the night\, with enough energy to power a large city” (Jamie Anderson\, indie-music.com). \nLewis is said to have “Sister Rosetta Tharpe’s virtuoso commitment to her instrument and Odetta’s vocal power\, creating a show that is a force of nature.” The Louisiana Red Hot Records artist has two releases on the label of Dumpstaphunk\, Honey Island Swamp Band\, and 2018 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Cyril Neville. \nThe regular LLP lineup is a cosmic swarm of fellow idealist music nerds: Smokey Brown (Think Less\, Hear More)\, Wade Hymel (Dash Rip Rock)\, Ryan Murray (Marina Orchestra\, Bloco Jacare)\, Ole Oddlokken (Noisewater) and master composer/virtuoso bassist Dr. Jimbo Walsh. Willing to traverse any musical terrain\, LLP bears the spirit of days when everyone still believed music could change the world. \nLearn More \nIn the Galleries\nKeith Duncan (American\, b. 1967)\, Grambling State University Drum Major 2\, 2020\, Acrylic on wallpaper mounted to canvas\, Museum purchase\, P. Roussel Norman Fund\, E-2021-14.1\, Courtesy of the artist and Fort Gansevoort © Keith Duncan \nNEW at NOMA: Recent Acquisitions in Contemporary Art spotlights contemporary art recently purchased or gifted to the museum\, focusing on works by BIPOC\, LGBTQIA+\, and female-identifying artists. The second in a series of exhibitions that began in 2017\, NEW at NOMA reflects the museum’s ongoing commitment to make the art on its walls more reflective of the community that it serves. The installation\, which will rotate over time\, features work by local\, national\, and international artists\, and champions the work of emerging and underrepresented voices\, including those within New Orleans. \nIn 2020\, NOMA dedicated its available acquisition funds to purchasing works by BIPOC artists; more than half of the 20 works acquired are by artists from or working in New Orleans. As NOMA strives to become even more equitable and inclusive\, the museum’s commitment to addressing exclusions in the past by collecting through new acquisitions will continue through 2021 and beyond. \nLearn More \nAbout Rearranging the Planets\nCreative Assembly Cohort member Steve Lands presents Rearranging the Planets\, a new musical performance reinterpreting composer Gustav Holst’s influential orchestral suite The Planets. \nWith his original composition\, Lands uses Holst’s work as a jumping off point to explore the varied relationships civilizations have had to the heavens over time. While Holst structured his suite—which premiered at the Queen’s Hall in London in 1918—around the Solar System and its Greco-Roman mythological namesakes\, Rearranging the Planets casts a broader net to consider how societies around the world have looked to the stars. In the words of planetary scientist Carl Sagan\, “We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.” \nLearn More \nAbout Jane Place Neighborhood Sustainability Initiative\nJane Place Neighbrohood Sustainability Initiative is a community land trust and housing rights organization committed to creating sustainable\, democratic\, and economically just neighborhoods and communities in New Orleans. \nLearn More \nCovid-19 Safety Guidelines\nNOMA’s primary concern is the health of our visitors\, staff\, and community. At this time\, visitors to the museum ages 12 and up are required to show proof of two doses of a Covid-19 vaccine (or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine)\, or negative results of a Covid-19 test taken within 72 hours of your visit.

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Arts & Letters Series with Nathaniel Rich discussing Losing Earth | Music by Shawn Williams Band
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2020: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n5 – 8 pm | Art on the Spot drop-in activity table \n5:30 – 8:30 pm | Music by Shawn Williams Band \n6:30 pm | Arts & Letters Series: Nathaniel Rich discusses Losing Earth\, joined in conversation with Mark Davis\, founding director of the Tulane Institute on Water Resources Law and Policy of Tulane University and former director of the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana. A book signing will follow in the Museum Shop.\n▶ READ AN INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR \nABOUT SHAWN WILLIAMS BAND\nNew Orleans’ pioneering voice in “alt-rock countrybilly serial-killer blues\,” Shawn Williams describes her sound as that “of a dirtier-minded Elvis deciding to get it on in the back of some roadhouse saloon with one of those sad-eyed cowboy types that would rather be drinking alone.” \nHer debut album Shadow (2017) is a skillfully-mastered collection of originals that moves seamlessly from old-school R&B-inflected rockers to softer\, wistful numbers. On recording as in live performance\, she conveys a sense of rawness\, a depth of feeling\, and a lack of pretension that set her apart from the rest of the city’s pool of talented up-and-coming musicians. Aside from her own music\, she is also the founder of the all-female Elvis tribute band\, Pelvis Breastlies. \nABOUT NATHANIEL RICH\nBy 1979\, we knew nearly everything we understand today about climate change―including how to stop it. Over the next decade\, a handful of scientists\, politicians\, and strategists\, led by two unlikely heroes\, risked their careers in a desperate\, escalating campaign to convince the world to act before it was too late. In Losing Earth\, Rich chronicles their story\, and ours. \nThe New York Times Magazine devoted an entire issue to Rich’s groundbreaking chronicle of that decade\, which became an instant journalistic phenomenon―the subject of news coverage\, editorials\, and conversations all over the world. In its emphasis on the lives of the people who grappled with the great existential threat of our age\, it made vivid the moral dimensions of our shared plight. Now expanded into book form\, Losing Earth tells the human story of climate change in even richer\, more intimate terms. It reveals\, in previously unreported detail\, the birth of climate denialism and the genesis of the fossil fuel industry’s coordinated effort to thwart climate policy through misinformation propaganda and political influence. The book carries the story into the present day\, wrestling with the long shadow of our past failures and asking crucial questions about how we make sense of our past\, our future\, and ourselves. Like John Hersey’s Hiroshima and Jonathan Schell’s The Fate of the Earth\, Losing Earth is the rarest of achievements: a riveting work of dramatic history that articulates a moral framework for understanding how we got here\, and how we must go forward. \nRich is a writer-at-large for the New York Times Magazine; his essays on literature appear regularly in the Atlantic\, Harper’s\, and the New York Review of Books. His reported pieces have appeared in various anthologies\, including the Best American Nonrequired Reading and the Best American Science and Nature Writing. He is the author of three novels: King Zeno (2018); Odds Against Tomorrow (2013); and The Mayor’s Tongue (Riverhead\, 2008). \nABOUT MARK DAVIS\nA widely consulted and quoted authority on water law and management\, Mark Davis joined Tulane Law School in 2007 as a senior research fellow and founding director of the Tulane Institute on Water Resources Law and Policy. In 2017 he also became the director of Tulane’s ByWater Institute which is focused the interdisciplinary aspects of water stewardship and community resilience.  He lectures widely on water resource management\, is directly involved in helping Louisiana overhaul its long-term water planning and has testified frequently before Congress on the need for a focused and effective commitment to the viability of coastal Louisiana and other vital natural treasures.\nDavis spent 14 years as executive director of the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana\, where he helped shape programs and policies at the state and federal level to improve the stewardship of the wetlands and waters of coastal Louisiana. He has practiced law in Indianapolis\, the District of Columbia and Chicago and has taught at the Indiana University (Indianapolis) School of Business and the IIT-Chicago Kent School of Law in Chicago. \nFriday Nights at NOMA is presented by The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate and supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council. \n

DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2019: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n5 – 8 pm | Art on the Spot drop-in activity table \n5:30 – 8:30 pm | Music by Keith Burnstein \n7 – 8:30 pm | Screening of Bauhaus Spirit: 100 Years of Bauhaus \nABOUT KEITH BURNSTEIN\nKeith Burnstein is a New Orleans based singer-songwriter\, pianist\, and film composer who pens timeless tunes to live by. His is a new American songbook\, one that draws as much from Tin Pan Alley as it does from modern geniuses like Jeff Tweedy\, Dr. John\, and Amon Tobin. “The songs\, while instantly familiar\, remain very much their own creations” writes Secret Sound Shop\,  “combining the bedroom intimacy of a singer-songwriter” (Seven Days VT) with the rich harmonic palette of jazz\, contemporary classical\, and world music. \nABOUT BAUHAUS SPIRIT: 100 YEARS OF BAUHAUS\nIn conjunction with the exhibition An Ideal Unity: The Bauhaus & Beyond\, NOMA will screen Bauhaus Spirit: 100 Years of Bauhaus. This lively\, wide-ranging documentary explores the history\, present and future of the utopian design and architecture school and communal social movement around the world. Founded in 1919 by Walter Gropius\, Bauhaus was supposed to unite sculpture\, painting\, design and architecture into a single combined constructive discipline. It is a synthesis of liberated imagination and stringent structure; cross-medial concepts that embellish and enrich our existence\, illumination and clarity\, order and playfulness. Bauhaus constituted one of the most significant contributions to everyday 20th-century culture and influential contemporary designs\, but Bauhaus was never just an artistic experiment. Confronted with the social conditions of that particular time\, as well as the experience of the First World War\, the movement concerned itself with the political and social connotations of design from the very outset. \nWatch the trailer: \n \n  \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K.

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Lee Ledbetter lecture and book signing | Music by Eileina Davis
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2019: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n5 – 8 pm | Art on the Spot drop-in activity table \n5:30 – 8:30 pm | Music by Eileina Dennis \n6 – 8 pm | Lee Ledbetter lecture and book signing \nABOUT EILEINA DENNIS\nVocalist Eileina Dennis was raised in Birmingham\, England and grew up singing gospel. She had a notable career as an R&B and pop singer performer before falling in love with jazz. Dennis points to Louis Armstrong\, Charlie Parker\, Miles Davis\, Count Basie and Ella Fitzgerald as all having influenced her career. She will perform hits from the American Songbook\, accompanied by pianist Larry Sieberth. \nABOUT LEE LEDBETTER\nLee Ledbetter & Associates served as consultants for the Besthoff Sculpture Garden Pavilion\, which opened at NOMA in May 2019. The renowned New Orleans-based design firm has issued a book showcasing the work of its lead designer and architect known for creating spaces that balance historic detail and modern elegance. \n▶ READ AN INTERVIEW WITH LEDBETTER IN NOMA MAGAZINE \nThe work of architect and interior designer Lee Ledbetter represents a one-of-a-kind combination of traditional details and chic Modernism. Ledbetter established his practice in New Orleans in 1996 and has developed a body of work that emerges from his ability to incorporate historical precedent as well as regional and environmental context\, and his firm has received recognition for its expertise well beyond its Deep South roots. Ledbetter’s interiors and architecture combine a cleanly tailored and bright modernity with the unapologetic embellishments of refined and luxurious decoration. Ledbetter strongly believes design to be a fine art along with painting and sculpture\, and he considers placement and scale of furniture\, artwork\, and lighting as carefully as he does the creation of walls and the spaces they contain. As Mayer Rus\, who provides the text for this title\, once wrote in House & Garden\, “Lee Ledbetter rejects the idea that a serious architect cannot be a dedicated decorator as well.” \n\nA book signing in the Museum Shop will follow the lecture. \n\n\nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council.

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Wilmer Wilson lecture | Activation of Brève braises with artist Manon Bellet and Justin Peake
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2019: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n\n5 – 8 pm | Art on the Spot drop-in activity table\n5:30 pm | Gallery Talk with Curator Katie Pfohl on Bodies of Knowledge\n6:30 pm | Artist lecture with Wilmer Wilson\n7:30 pm | Activation of Brève braises with artist Manon Bellet and musician Justin Peake\n\nABOUT WILMER WILSON\nWilmer Wilson IV is among the eleven international artists represented in Bodies of Knowledge. In his 2012 film Black Mask\, shown on continuous loop in the exhibition\, Wilson slowly obscures his face with black Post-it notes\, asking us to consider the paradoxical ways in which black bodies are both hyper-visible and at the same time erased from dominant histories and narratives. At the end of the video\, the artist peels off all of the sticky notes\, save one\, envisioning how we might make more visible bodies that are often marked by absence. The video is placed into conversation with book publications that document the artist’s self-designed Running Tour performances. Created as a subtle parody of a tourist guidebook\, Wilson snaps photographs without halting his stride along routes that include well-known sightseeing spots as well as indistinct\, ostensibly unremarkable locations. Filled with blurred\, disorienting images\, these books make tangible the tension between traditional forms of historic preservation and the lived experience of contemporary cities. Taken together\, Black Maskand Wilson’s running tours present the body not as a vehicle for self-portraiture\, but rather as a social site able to adapt to and shape the environment it inhabits\, imagining how we might reconfigure the collective spaces\, histories\, and experiences of places such as New Orleans. \nABOUT BRÉVE BRAISES\nIn the installation Brève braises\, artist Manon Bellet affixes the charred remains of burned paper on the walls of the gallery in the exhibition Bodies of Knowledge. From these tattered remains\, she creates a script or musical score that runs across an entire length of a long white wall. Created in collaboration with musicians that Bellet invites to compose an accompanying musical score\, these burned fragments of paper have a graphic dynamism and rhythm that resembles that of improvisational music or impromptu speech. Over the course of her installation\, she allows these papers gradually drop to the floor\, encouraged by movement of air generated by the improvisational energy of bodies and instruments as their movement and vibrations activate the installation. \nMusician Justin Peake will participate in this activation. He is a New Orleans-based drummer\, composer\,  technologist\, visual artist\, researcher\, and educator. \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council.

Five quilts are on view in the Decorative Arts Gallery. \nABOUT WHILE I YET LIVE\nThis short 14-minute documentary explores the captivating work of five acclaimed African American quilters from Gee’s Bend\, Alabama\, a rural community that played a pivotal role during the Civil Rights Movement. \n\n\nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K.

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Screening of Shirin Neshat's Women Without Men | Music by Lucho | Artful Palate cooking demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2019: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n\n5 – 8 pm: Art on the Spot drop-in activity table\n5:30 – 8:30 pm: Music by Lucho\n6 pm: Artful Palate cooking demonstration with Chef Chris Vazquez\n6:30 pm: Screening of Women Without Men\n\nABOUT ARTFUL PALATE AND CHEF CHRIS VAZQUEZ\nCafé NOMA presents their eighth annual summertime Artful Palate series of cooking demonstrations at 6 pm with Chris Vazquez of Ralph Brennan Catering and Events. He will prepare beef goulash. Chefs from other restaurants in the Ralph Brennan Group will continue the cooking classes on Friday nights through August 23 with dishes inspired by their culinary mentors\, in tribute to the exhibition Bodies of Knowledge. \nABOUT WOMEN WITHOUT MEN\nIn conjunction with the exhibition Bodies of Knowledge\, NOMA will screen movies by Iranian filmmaker Shirin Neshat as part of Friday Nights at NOMA programming. Women Without Men profiles the lives of four women living in Tehran in 1953\, during the American-backed coup that returned the Shah of Iran to power. The film was called “visually transfixing” by a New York Times reviewer.  Two of the film’s recurrent images are of a long dirt road extending to the horizon on which the characters walk\, and a river that suggests\, “a deep current of feminine resilience below an impassive exterior.” Women Without Men is set in the streets of Iranian capital\, which are teeming with protesters objecting to the overthrow of the prime minister\, but four disparate women have more immediate concerns. Farrokhlagha’s (Arita Shahrzad) husband thinks he’s entitled to be married to multiple women. Munis (Shabnam Toloui) is a virtual slave to her brother. Faezeh (Pegah Ferydoni) has physical and emotional troubles. And Zarin (Orsolya Tóth) is an unwilling prostitute. Boldly\, the women pursue solutions to the problems foisted upon them. (2009 | Not rated | 1 hour\, 39 minutes | Watch the trailer) \nABOUT LUCHO\nLouisiana-born songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist Lucho is trying to redefine the role of a producer. Hailing from New Orleans\, Lucho began writing songs at an early age. Spending a majority of his teen years playing\, experimenting\, and refining his songwriting/production in various bands\, he focused his energy into creating unique sounds for other artists. In the summer of 2010 together with his siblings and guitarist Adrian Frye\, he independently released The Bit Parts EP with the indie-pop outfit Youth Sounds. The band achieved some success off the strength of its lead single “What is it like?” following it up with the Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow EP. In 2012 he connected with DRC rapper Alec Lomami\, producing three out of four songs on his debut Mélancolie Joyeuse EP. This established a unique artistic relationship with Lomami\, it also lead to Lucho becoming the creative director of Lomami’s and rapper Well$ independent label Immaculate Taste. His latest project\, a mix of Andean folkloric and electronic dance music\, has challenged him to dig into his South American roots and explore lush sonic territories\, allowing him the freedom to redefine his cultural and artistic self-expression. \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council.

Integrating sounds and rhythms from many different cultures\, Chouki combines classical guitar with instruments such as the loutar\, a traditional instrument of the Middle Atlas region of Morocco; the sintir\, a Sub-Saharan instrument from the Sahel region (Mali); the oud\, an oriental lute; the Algerian mandole\, a steel-string fretted instrument resembling an elongated mandolin; the Bağlama saz\, a Turkish long necked bowl-lute; the banjo\, and a variety of percussion instruments. As artistic director of Rencontre Orient-Occident at Chateau Mercier in Sierre\, Switzerland\, Chouki has brought together a wide range of international musicians to envision new forms of dialogue between East and West\, with music often the only common language between performers. \nFuture performances on Wednesdays at 3 pm by Chouki and guest musicians include: \n\nAugust 14\, 3 pm: Helen Gillet\nSeptember 11\, 3 pm: Jesse Autumn\nOctober 9: Martin Masakowski\n\nFriday Nights at NOMA performances (5:30 – 8:30 pm): \n\nAugust 23: Cyrille Aimee and Ricardo Pascal\nSeptember 13: Georgi Petrov and Sam Dickie\nOctober 13: Final Ensemble Concert\n\nABOUT ARTFUL PALATE AND CHEF KATE SCHWARLOZE\nCafé NOMA presents their eighth annual summertime Artful Palate series of cooking demonstrations at 6 pm with Kate Schwarloze\, sous chef from Brennan’s.

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Artist's Perspective with Wafaa Bilal | Music by Keiko and Mateo | Artful Palate cooking demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA features an exciting lineup of programs in 2019: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, the Museum Shop\, and Café NOMA remain open till 9 pm. \n\n\n\n5 – 8 pm: Art on the Spot drop-in activity table\n5:30 – 8:30 pm: Music by Keiko and Mateo\n6 pm: Artful Palate cooking demonstration with Knut Mjelde in Café NOMA\n6:30 pm: Artist’s Perspective Gallery Talk with Wafaa Bilal\n\n\n\nABOUT KEIKO AND MATEO\nThe duo of Keiko and Mateo will present a musical journey through Japan\, France\, Jamaica and Cuba … with a hint of New Orleans’s spirit. Keiko is a pianist from Japan and has lived in New Orleans since 2006\, performing with George Porter Jr.\, Johnny Vidacovich\, Zigaboo Modeliste\, Russell Batiste\, and many other artists of the funk/blues/jazz fusion scene. Mateo is a tenor saxophonist and vocalist from France whorecently moved to New Orleans from Barcelona. He has performed Afro-Latin jazz\, traditional Cuban and world music. Keiko and Mateo met as members of the international touring band Playing For Change and have been traveling around the world together since 2016. \nABOUT WAFAA BILAL\nDuring the invasion of Iraq in 2003\, the College of Fine Arts at the University of Baghdad lost their entire library due to looters who set fire to the collection. More than 70\,000 books were destroyed. Over thirteen years later\, few books remain for the students to read and study. In 168:01\, Iraqi-American artist Wafaa Bilal presents an austere white library that is both a monument to the staggering cultural losses endured throughout Iraq’s history\, and a platform for its potential rebirth. Comprised of a series of white shelves filled with blank tomes\, Bilal’s library doubles as a system of exchange that connects museum visitors directly to Iraq. Aimed at restoring the library’s lost archives\, 168:01 positions viewers as potential donors whose contributions fund educational texts from a reading list compiled by faculty members at the University of Baghdad. As book donations accrue\, the bookshelf becomes saturated with knowledge and filled with color as the white library is slowly replaced with books from this faculty wish list. In exchange for their contribution\, donors receive the blank tomes. At the end of the exhibition\, all donated books are to be shipped to the College of Fine Arts\, to help begin the process of rebuilding. \nAlso on view are images from Bilal’s The Ashes Series\, photographs of a set of miniature handmade replicas of environments destroyed during the Iraq War. Each of these three-dimensional models references a specific journalistic photograph of war-torn Iraq that was circulated in newspapers\, magazines\, and on the internet in the wake of conflict. \nImage credit: Wafaa Bilal\, The Ashes Series: Piano\, 2003–2013\, Archival inkjet photograph\, 40 x 50 in.\, Image courtesy of the artist © Wafaa Bilal \nABOUT ARTFUL PALATE AND CHEF KNUT MJELDE\nCafé NOMA presents their eighth annual summertime Artful Palate series of cooking demonstrations at 6 pm withKnut Mjelde\, Ralph’s on the Park sous chef.
