Meet Me at the Fest is about a very specific kind of New Orleans spring ritual.
The one where weekend after weekend, the city does what it does best.
It comes alive.
Music fills the air.
Weekends fill up fast.
And while visitors are busy figuring out where to go next, the seasoned fest crew already has a plan.
You grab the crawfish bread.
I'll wait in line for the mango freeze.
Sunglasses are mandatory.
A hat is non-negotiable.
And someone better remember the blanket that folds up the smallest and spreads out the widest.
Because this spot?
This is home base.
This painting celebrates the people who understand the assignment. The ones who know which acts are worth sprinting across the grounds for, which food booths are worth the wait, and exactly how to divide and conquer so everyone gets back to the blanket with something worth sharing.
It's inspired by the energy of New Orleans festival season, blending the traditions, colors, and rhythms that make both Jazz Fest and French Quarter Fest feel like annual reunions. Not just with friends, but with the city itself.
Bold stripes, vibrant color, and expressive movement echo the rhythm of live music, crowded festival grounds, and the joyful chaos that unfolds when thousands of people gather to celebrate food, culture, and community.
Because for those of us who do this every year, the best part of fest isn't just the music or the food.
It's knowing exactly where to find your people.
