We will have a stellar panel of local artists, costumers and designers to judge, so you know the winning costumes will actually be good. Judges on this expert panel to be announced SOON!
Going on FOUR YEARS of furry, fun-for-everyone vibes, HOWL-O-WEENIE is the best way to spend a Saturday afternoon before Halloween. No one does Halloween like New Orleans, ESPECIALLY the dogs!!!
