Westwego Farmers Market

The night of Saturday, November 3rd, I went to see an art exhibit at the Westwego Farmers Market. I took some photos of the space near the parking lot. There were building facades that designated the original buildings of the city of Westwego.

Center Stage

From the center stage a musician entertained the exhibitors and visitors. People sat in the grass area in front of the stage. Others wandered around the exhibition.

Before leaving I stopped to look at a mosaic. It was a map of the Mississippi River showing the location of Salaville ande Westwego. I took a few photos of parts of the mosaic.
