About the Event
The final, can’t -miss celebration to wrap up NOLA Water Week! Why watermelon? This juicy fruit is more than just a delicious summer staple. Across many cultures, it is a symbol of ingenuity, resistance, and freedom. This family-friendly event has it all – music, Ruby Slipper food truck, games, local vendors, and of course, a watermelon patch!!! Bring the kids, grab a watermelon cocktail, and enjoy the day over DJ tunes and some fun games. NOLA Water Week is presented by André Callioux Center for Performing Arts and Cultural Justice & Liquid IV.
