The Historic BK House & Gardens is gearing up to host a series of captivating events, starting with a fabulous concert featuring acclaimed French Jazz vocalist Cyrille Aimée on Sunday, February 25. Aimée is celebrated for her jazz-based performances encompassing Gypsy swing, Brazilian Bossa Nova, and Latin grooves. With a career spanning competitions, collaborations, and eight albums, Aimée’s diverse heritage inspires her creative pursuits. Described as a blend of Michael Jackson and Sarah Vaughan, Aimée will mesmerize audiences with her soulful performance. The concert, beginning at 6 p.m., promises an enchanting evening of music and entertainment. Tickets are priced at $30 for nonmembers and $25 for members, available at www.bkhouse.org. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own beverages, openers, and extra cups to complement the light refreshments served at the event.

Alongside the concert, the groundbreaking Haiti-Louisiana: Tides of Freedom Exhibit will continue to captivate art enthusiasts in the Grand Salon of the museum through March 16. Presented by The Nous Foundation, the exhibit commemorates Haiti’s 220th anniversary of independence and celebrates the deep-rooted connection between Haiti and Louisiana. Featuring collections from the Jacques Bartoli Collection of contemporary Haitian art and original artworks by Haitian and Louisianan artists, the exhibit offers a unique exploration of cultural heritage.

Looking ahead, BK House is thrilled to announce the return of the Rhythm & Roses Concert Series in the Parterre Garden for the second year. Sponsored by James Douglas Hislop, the series will showcase top names in the New Orleans entertainment community on Thursdays from March 14 through May 2.

Future events at BK House include art classes in the spring, an Italian Wine Tasting, a St. Joseph’s Altar, and lectures on immigration and Italian history in March, followed by a spectacular Dining by Design seated dinner in May.

Established as a National Historic Landmark, the BK House, built in 1826, has evolved into a cultural hub focusing on the heritage of the seven families who lived on the property and the influences of the French Quarter neighborhood.
