One year later\, in 1866\, the proud descendants reclaimed June 19 as Juneteenth in recognition of nationwide liberation. After decades of lobbying\, the date was granted Federal Holiday status in 2021. \nAs a proud native of the City of New Orleans\, I am honored to continue the legacy of Minister John Mosley and my first dance teacher\, Mama Baderiwna Rolland. They believed in embedding the history and meaning of Juneteenth into our city’s consciousness. This year’s Juneteenth celebration is a testament to their vision and our progress. It will be a vibrant showcase of Black excellence in the arts\, featuring Black artistic expression in music\, film\, dance\, poetry\, acting\, and visual design. It’s a celebration that entertains and educates\, informing the audience about the profound significance of Juneteenth.” \n\nAbout Edward Spots\nEdward Emanuel Spots was born and raised in the city of New Orleans. Spots has led choreography showcased at the New Orleans Museum Of Art\, the New Orleans Jazz Market\, Tulane University\, Audubon Park\, and digital platforms.

They are available for purchase directly from our partner vendors. \n\nNOMA AT NIGHT LINE-UP\n\nDJ Set by HEELTURN\nIn the Great Hall\nWith a strong urge to help build community and a wide taste in music\, New Orleans native HEELTURN started out honing his DJ skills on WTUL with a show he likes to call “Accepted Eclectic.” From there he has bounced all over the city bringing a unique mix of soul\, disco\, hip-hop\, R&B\, bounce\, baile funk\, house\, and club music to a wide variety of audiences. He has opened Washed Out\, guest DJ-ed Set De Flo at the Hi-Ho Lounge (spotlighted by Boiler Room and Resident Advisor)\, performed with Katey Red\, and played music festivals including BUKU and Bonnaroo. His love of the local music scene has led him to contribute writing to Antigravity and to co-book for the POC-focused punk music festival Deep Cuts. \nArt-Making Activity: Assemblage\n6:00–9:30 pm in the museum’s first-floor galleries\n  \n \nFeatured Exhibition | Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined\nThis major solo exhibition of work by Wangechi Mutu brings together nearly one hundred sculptures\, paintings\, collages\, drawings\, and films to present the breadth of the Kenyan–American artist’s multidisciplinary practice from the mid-1990s to today. \n\nAdditional Credits\nMahmoud Chouki\nNOMA is pleased to work with internationally renowned multi-instrumentalist and composer Mahmoud Chouki\, who is organizing musical performances for each NOMA at Night program in collaboration with museum staff. \nMahmoud Chouki is a master guitarist\, multi-instrumentalist\, and composer living and working in New Orleans. His art draws together music from many different international contexts to consider how music can speak across cultural divides. His own compositions incorporate musical influences from across the globe\, ranging from European classical\, Andalusian from Southern Spain\, Levantine music from the Middle East\, Maghrebian music from North Africa\, Latin American music\, and jazz from the Southern United States. 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.

Louisiana residents receive free admission on Wednesdays courtesy of The Helis Foundation. \n\nCharm Taylor and the Light (Lauren Fuller\, Wino Willy\, Saint Amethyst)\nFrom the artist: Charm Taylor is a multidisciplinary artist\, curator\, and change-maker. As an independent vocalist and songwriter\, Taylor first gained recognition as the lead singer of the electric soul-rock band the Honorable South. She has collaborated with Galactic\, Spirit McIntyre\, Georgia Anne Muldrow\, Mononeon\, and more. Her music defies genres and her dynamic performances are infused with themes of ancestral memory\, wellness\, and deep feminine strength—also evident in her bold visual creations meditating on pathways to liberation. In 2015\, she released a critically acclaimed first solo EP\, The Road Within\, followed by several albums with local indie imprint Sinking City Records\, including her album She Is the Future\, and her most recent collection Evolution. Taylor has served in the community as an activist and educator\, and she is a graduate of Occidental College in Los Angeles. \nKr3wcial and More Love (TJ Nathan\, Jemila Dunham\, Yahel Yizracyah Yisrael)\nFrom the artist: In the vibrant tapestry of New Orleans’ rich musical heritage\, Kr3wcial emerges as a dynamic figure\, transcending the boundaries of traditional hip-hop. Born and raised in the heart of the Crescent City\, Kr3wcial’s music is a sonic journey through the soul of New Orleans itself. With lyrics that delve deep into the city’s intricate layers—from the gritty streets to the transcendent spirit of its people—he weaves a narrative that is both raw and poetic\, reminiscent of the city’s jazz and blues roots. Kr3wcial’s tracks\, often enlivened with the pulse of brass and the rhythm of New Orleans\, serve as a compelling commentary on the city’s multifaceted nature. Through his verses\, he explores themes of resilience\, identity\, and social consciousness. Beyond the studio\, Kr3wcial is a community.

His primary musical instruments are the accordion\, guitar\, piano\, and voice. Fermín continually works on several musical projects in the Gulf-South\, such as Merengue4-FOUR\, a musical project showcasing Dominican Music (Bachata & Merengue Típico)\, Fermín’s Latin Fusion Orchestra\, performing original salsa-inspired compositions and Fermín Acústico\, a musical concept interlacing melodies and harmonies with guitar and voice. With all his projects\, he performs original compositions based on his fusion of different sounds and musical rhythms. In 2018\, Fermín wrote YO VENGO DE TODO LADO (I Come From Everywhere) to honor and celebrate our immigrant diversity\, and the National TPS (Temporary Protective Status) Alliance adopted it as their anthem. In 2019\, he released his first book of poems in Spanish and English entitled “Pisando Mi Sombra” (Walking My Shadow). At the start of the 2020 pandemic shutdown\, Fermín began composing and self-producing his debut solo album. BOCHINCE was released in 2021 and can stream on all online platforms. The album features 14 tracks of original music. \nLeonard Jacome\nLeonard Jacome was born in Rubio\, Táchira State\, Venezuela. He is a multi-instrumentalist\, arranger\, composer\, producer\, and one of the World’s most prolific and accomplished harpists. He has won numerous awards representing Venezuela abroad and has toured and performed throughout Latin America\, the United States\, South Africa\, Europe\, Africa\, Japan\, Malaysia\, and the United Kingdom (UK). Leonard is also working to develop a contemporary identity for the South American harp. He is the creator/inventor of the Venezuelan electric harp\, with the support of Camac-Harps of France. Leonard is a Composer and arranger of musical works for the Philharmonic Orchestra and “Big Band Jazz.” \nCristina Kaminis\nChristina Kaminis is a Mexican/American singer currently living in New Orleans. Her musical style ranges in genre and languages with hints of Mexican ranchera llanto to Blues\, American Standards\, and French chansons\, as well as Brazilian sounds and rhythms (most of the band hails from Brazil). \nPatrice Fisher\nLatin jazz harpist/composer Patrice Fisher favors the music of New Orleans\, Brazil\, and Cuba\, saying that not only is the harp ‘comfortable’ harmonically with the music but that elf is drawn to the rhythmic complexities and syncopations: “that’s what makes you want to dance.” Patrice has 16 CDs of original music\, the latest being “Happy Socks.” She has performed for over 35 years at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. “An unexpected delight!” raves David Fricke of Rolling Stone Magazine. Gene Scaramuzzo of Gambit newspaper says\, “There are many sides to this local composer/harpist. It’s not unusual to see her play a classical gig in the morning and a music club at night. Strong rhythms form the undercurrent of her instrumental music with Arpa.” \nMariangel & Derik\, Liquid Rhythm Inc.\nMariangel was born in Venezuela\, and Derik was born in New Orleans. Liquid Rhythm Inc. originally began as a performance-based dance company out of New Orleansix with six core members consisting of local dancers with various dance backgrounds\, such as Hip-Hop\, House\, Modern\, Jazz\, Contemporary\, Folkloric\, and Ballet\, to name a few. LRI wanted to set itself apart from other Salsa dance companies by infusing movements each member knew from previous dance forms into the technical frameworks of the many Salsa styles they studied. Most importantly\, have FUN while doing so! LRI doesn’t believe that one style of Salsa or dance is better.
