Mardi Gras Celebration

Let the good times roll! The Mardi Gras Celebration is Sustainable City's first dinner fundraiser. Join us!

Held at a private residence, let us take you to New Orleans for a good old fashioned community get together with food and fun!

Our mixologists from Another Round Another Rally nonprofit are serving signature cocktails while you dine on an authentic NOLA-style jambalaya dinner with andouille sausage and shrimp (vegan option available) served with collard greens, red beans, and grits.
