Join us every Wednesday night in April and October from 5pm to 8pm for "Evenings with Enrique" in The Helis Foundation Enrique Alférez Sculpture Garden.  

Each week, "Evenings with Enrique" features local musicians playing among the collection of sculptures by the famed Mexican-American artist. Visitors to the garden will be able to view the work of Enrique Alférez under enhanced lighting and fire baskets suspended from the branches of the Live Oak tree.

Latin food is available from La Cocinita food truck.  Mojitos, wine, and water are also available for purchase. 

New this October:  Chef Pat White of Karibu Kitchen will be cooking up treats in the wood-burning oven in the New Orleans Botanical Garden's "Kitchen in the Garden" scheduled to open in late September.
