The Roots of Music's Home Sweet Home Gala

Description

The Roots of Music is hosting their annual gala on Friday, November 14th, 2025 from 7:00- 10:00 pm on their new campus, in the historic St. Gabriel The Archangel Church. The venue is located at 4700 Pineda St. New Orleans, LA 70126. This event will feature live music, food and drink, and a silent auction -- all benefiting The Roots of Music’s programs. From humble beginnings in 2007 as a six-week drum program at Tipitina’s, to now serving close to 250 students and having a home of their own, the growth of Roots’ programming is truly something to celebrate. The gala will consist of student performances by the All-Star Studio Band, the Marching Crusaders, and special guest performers Robin Barnes, The Original Pinettes Brass Band, and Ani DiFranco.
