The 9th annual NOLA Pyrate Week is soon upon us (24 Mar – 2 Apr 2017) and as usual, there’s a change in the wind…directly across the Mississippi to the West Bank – in beautiful Algiers Point! We are teaming up with the fine folks at Confetti Park Kids (books, music & activities for kids of all ages) and joining the largest neighbourhood porch sale, “Treasures From The Point” (raising funds for The Algiers Ferry). Our good mates, The Whiskey Bay Rovers will also be on hand to entertain us with musical merriment, food will be available, activities for the kids…and the usual jolly crew ye know and love! We expect there to be MANY people at this event in conjunction with the annual porch sale…

We are organizing a Pyrate Market and invite ye (and any artistic mates ye have) to join us! As always, HANDMADE is preferred! We’re working a few minor details out, but the basics are thus: Saturday, 25 March from 11am – 5pm in Old Algiers (601 Patterson Rd., Warrens Corner & Old Point Bar – market is outdoors).

We do ask ye to apply here http://nolapyrateweek.com/merchants/ and we’ll get back to ye with information as it arrives.

If ye’ve any questions, contact us…

** We are always open to Sponsors & Supporters – if ye think ye might help in a big way, let us know and we’ll help by promoting the heck out o’ ye! More info here…
