A heartfelt thank you to New Orleans City Council member @freddiekingiii for supporting Art Camp 504 with a generous grant of $10,000!

With support from Mr. King and other supporters, we will continue to serve over 400 students and employ talented artists and culture bearers each year while ensuring that our programs remain both accessible and of the highest quality. 

We’re especially grateful because funding like this means we’re able to maintain our commitment to keeping 30% of our spots scholarship-based. Each year, 100+ New Orleans youth campers are able to explore their creativity without any financial burdens to their families. We even have flexible aftercare options. Together, we are transforming lives through art!

Stardust 24-25 Space Crew is on a mission to free Planet Zanzibrax from the wrath of @igrac_nola , the most formidable realtors in the galaxy. Join our intergalactic community as we unite for justice and stand up against greed and endless profit. For years IGRAC has been tormenting Ziggy’s home planet, raising interest rates, buying up neighborhoods, and destroying communities. This Thanksgiving, a three day portal to Planet Z is opening at the Tigermen Den, presenting the incredible opportunity to participate in the Zanxibraxian’s famed annual tradition - the Alien Horse Races. The goal of this event is to bring awareness to the planet’s housing crisis and begin fundraising so that Planet Z can finally defeat IGRAC once and for all. All are welcome to join - no matter what planet you’re from, how many limbs you have, the number of your eyeballs. Join Stardust 24-25 Space Crew in our journey for intergalactic justice! We’ll be developing our otherworldly personas, designing costumes, shooting a movie, cooking turkey gumbo, building the race track and more! 🚀 Nov 25 - 27, drop in available 👽 8:30 - 3:30, Aftercare 5:30 🪐 Ages 7 - 13, Interns 16+ 🛸 Cost $240, Sliding scale & scholarships 🛰️ @the_tigermen_den 3113 Royal St, Bywater 🎵 Neighborhood Races & Free Porch Concert with @snakeandtherabbit Nov 27, 3:00-5:15pm 🎵 _______________________________⁠ ⁠ Art Camp 504 offers year round workshops for passionate young artists.

The block will be closed to traffic and there will be a porta potty to make things super safe and comfortable. Can’t wait to see all you ghouls and goblins there!! Clouet Gardens GoFundMe: Vist our Linkinbio Fundraiser Info: Clouet Gardens has been an invaluable lynchpin of the Bywater community for nearly 15 years! Can you believe it?! We were always able to cover expenses by booking private events throughout the years, but since the pandemic in 2020 and adjusting to the uncertainty of a year-to-year lease in 2022, we have had to depend almost exclusively on annual online fundraisers to keep things going. So here we are with a GoFundMe. We are also hoping to raise at least $2000 to cover maintenance and insurance for 2025. Any amount you’re able to throw our way is enthusiastically appreciated! No funds? The simple act of sharing this fundraiser far and wide can be just as helpful. We love our park and all of you. Let’s keep this garden party going for as long as we can! #artcamp504 #clouetgardens #tigermenden #halloween
OUR EPIC JOURNEY to save Plant Zanzibrax from @igrac_nola the greedy realtors has begun! This film was written, directed, and filmed by Art Camp 504 students during Fall Break 2024: Space Launch Research and Astronaut Training. On a far away planet called Zanzibrax, there lived a famous rock star named Ziggy Stardust King of Karnage. He was the leader of a band called The Kings of Karnage and was known throughout the galaxy for his amazing music and unique, lightning-shaped face marking! Ziggy was born with a condition called hip dysplasia. He has been taking medication for the pain, but in order to finally heal he had to travel to a faraway place called Earth for a special surgery. Lucky for Ziggy, he has his trusty sidekick Princess Supernova, a real life princess, along for this adventure. She is known for being a little mischievous… One day, while exploring Ziggy’s spaceship, she was looking for a high spot to perch when suddenly— The ship blasted off!  Now that they’re on Earth, Ziggy and Princess have important jobs as camp counselors at Art Camp 504 in New Orleans. They take their jobs very seriously, enjoying endless attention, adoration and handmade gifts and accessories. Not long after landing on Earth, Ziggy Stardust formed a cutting edge punk rock band called Freddie and the Chins. The band members are Freddie, Ziggy, Princess Supernova, Sookie, Pop Tart, and Remi. They’re working hard on their very first album 🎸 But all is not well back on Zanzibrax. The planet has long struggled under the heavy interest rates imposed by the dreaded IGRAC. Now, these greedy realtors are plotting to sell Zanzibrax once and for all. Ziggy won’t stand for it! Determined to protect his homeland, he prepares to rally his friends and stand against the Intergalactic Association of Realtors. This is Planet Zanzibrax’s last chance to buy their planet back from the galaxy’s most evil realtors! The most famous rock band ever, The Kings of Karnage, is getting back together for the biggest benefit concert the universe has ever seen! Ziggy’s bringing  his whole band, Freddie and the Chins, and his trusty Stardust Space Crew are coming along for the ride! 🚀

If you are able, please bring something to share. If you would prefer to throw some cash and let the spooky party planners do the shopping, you can venmo @clouetgardens. Address: 710 Clouet St. Stop by @the_tigermen_den for some candy, and to greet Ziggy Stardust and Princess Supernova! The block will be closed to traffic and there will be a porta potty to make things super safe and comfortable. Can’t wait to see all you ghouls and goblins there!! Clouet Gardens GoFundMe: Vist our Linkinbio Fundraiser Info: Clouet Gardens has been an invaluable lynchpin of the Bywater community for nearly 15 years! Can you believe it?! We were always able to cover expenses by booking private events throughout the years, but since the pandemic in 2020 and adjusting to the uncertainty of a year-to-year lease in 2022, we have had to depend almost exclusively on annual online fundraisers to keep things going. So here we are with a GoFundMe. We are also hoping to raise at least $2000 to cover maintenance and insurance for 2025. Any amount you’re able to throw our way is enthusiastically appreciated! No funds? The simple act of sharing this fundraiser far and wide can be just as helpful. We love our park and all of you. Let’s keep this garden party going for as long as we can! #artcamp504 #clouetgardens #tigermenden #halloween

This Fall Break, we began the first part of our journey to space: Research & Astronaut Training. Our crew’s Navigation Dept traveled to the edges of the universe (via top secret magical crystal) to pull information about the planets and life forms we may encounter on our journey. What is Ziggy Stardusts’s home planet like? And… where did Princess Supernova come from? The Engineering Dept constructed model rockets and launched them into space (vinegar and baking soda!) Our Communications Dept constructed the Command Center and released the first official video message from our base. And our Life Support and Habitability Dept team began exploring nutrition options for our journey… by cooking astronaut ice cream, and meteor meat balls with Venusian lava sauce, yum!! JOIN OUR SPACE CREW 🚀 Special thanks to @thegreenproject for donating a space station full of building supplies - we love creating with recycled materials! The next stop on our journey is Thanksgiving, when the 3 day portal to Planet Zanzibrax opens at the Tigermen Den - and our students get to participate in the Alien Horse Races! Join Stardust Space Crew 24-25 and help us save Ziggy’s home planet from the evil realtors! _______________________________⁠ ⁠ Art Camp 504 offers year round workshops for passionate young artists.
