$79 – $290The NOCCA Foundation, The Times-Picayune | New Orleans Advocate, and the family of Daniel Price are thrilled to announce the 20th anniversary Celebration of “Home for the Holidays” on Saturday, December 21 at House of Blues New Orleans (225 Decatur Street). This year’s star-studded music lineup features Irma Thomas, Rebirth Brass Band, Kermit Ruffins, John Boutte, DJ Raj Smoove, Flagboy Giz and Emcee Gralen Banks. Tickets for the event (starting at $79.50, including taxes/ticketing fees) are now available to purchase at www.NOCCAFoundation.org/holiday.
Proceeds from the event will support the NOCCA Foundation’s Daniel Price Memorial Fund for Aspiring Artists, which honors the memory of NOCCA alum Daniel Price (Visual Arts, 1993) with scholarships for NOCCA students. To date, Home for the Holidays and the Daniel Price Fund have raised over $500,000 for NOCCA and its amazing students.
The Daniel Price Memorial Fund for Aspiring Artists was established following Price’s death at the age of 28 while protecting his wife from an assailant in San Francisco. Daniel’s fund is part of the NOCCA Foundation’s Student Support Program, which provides NOCCA’s young artists with year-round support for training, supplies, and college scholarships.
