The driving force behind Art for Arts’ Sake is the philosophy that the value of art lies within the art itself and does not require any further justification. However, in light of the global and national strife that communities are facing during this current moment, we’ve decided to flip this event on its head and focus on the ability of art to nurture, to reflect, to speak, to inspire, and to heal. As part of Art Beyond Arts’ Sakes’ mission to highlight the power of art to transcend, galleries in the Arts District
New Orleans have partnered with local charities and organizations and will be contributing a portion of their proceeds during the month of October to these organizations. Arts District. 12-7pm. artsdistrictneworleans.com. 2-30 Yoga with a Vue. Held every Tuesday,

URSULINE ACADEMY
Diverse by design, Ursuline believes that appreciating and learning from people with different perspectives is how they build a better world. For many girls, Ursuline can be the first place they meet people with different backgrounds, beliefs and talents. The academy celebrates girls for who they are and elevates their confidence to influence the world. They learn from each other, celebrate each other and raise each other up. Here, girls gain a deeper understanding of themselves and how to be successful in a global society. Through interactive experiences tailored to girls’ interests, Ursuline students learn how to think deeper, communicate clearly and solve problems independently and collaboratively. At Ursuline, STEM and the arts are equal partners in powering the girls’ education. They believe that creative thinking - a key to 21st century success - is best nurtured when young brains explore both analytical and imaginative ideas. High school open house, October 28, 4-6pm. Early childhood and elemenarty tours available by appointment. Located at 2635 State Street. 861-1106. go.uanola.org.
