Saving NOLA, Habitat for Humanity Musicians Village, Global Green, Make it Right and the New Orleans Musicians Relief Fund all gathered under the same banner for Mardi Gras Day. Relief workers and musicians enjoyed Circle Bar hospitality as floats rolled and beads flew. The Rock Tree Poster winds up the slideshow, coming up for auction at www.nomrf.org.
