Dirty Linen NightSat, Aug 13th, 2011200 - 1000 block of Royal Street New Orleans, LA Join the celebration on Royal Street from the 200 block of Royal to the 1000 block ending at Ursulines Street, from 6:00 - 10:00 p.m. Dirty Linen Night will feature more than 60 galleries and shops and an exclusive shopping experience. Most galleries will serve cool refreshments, and special surprises between! Free and open to the public, the shops will welcome visitors into their businesses and offer a chance to meet the artists and owners. This has become a favorite summer event for both locals and visitors alike. Dirty Linen Night began years ago as a grassroots effort to bring visitors to this unique strip of Royal Street, and to this day it remains a free event that truly belongs to the Artists. Beginning in the 1000 block of Royal Street all the way to the 200 block of Royal you'll find venues that feature locally created art, as well as beautiful hand crafted pieces. Each block of Royal Street has wonders to discover. This year we have are featuring a Dirty Linen Night headquarters at one of the nine Creole Cuisine locations, Creole Cuisine's Royal House located at 441 Royal Street, corner of Royal and St. Louis streets. The Royal House will be highlighting menu specials that make Dirty Linen Night so unique, including the official Dirty Linen Martini! This group of artist owned galleries and studios is a great asset to the City of New Orleans, especially since no other arts district can boast so many working artists onsite, ready to meet the public on a daily basis. Dirty Linen Night is a great opportunity to meet those artists and visit our own crown jewel, the French Quarter. Summer casual wear or your dirty linen is suggested, but there's no real dress code! Please visit our shops and galleries in the French Quarter!
