Joint Book Signing with Wendy A. Gaudin and Katy Morlas Shannon

Join us at the Shop at the Collection for a special joint book signing with Wendy A. Gaudin, author of “Sunset Limited: An Autobiography of Creole,” and Katy Morlas Shannon, author of “Invisible Blackness: A Louisiana Family in the Age of Racial Passing.”

In light of the recent discovery by HNOC historian Jari C. Honora that Pope Leo XIV has Creole roots in New Orleans, these books offer opportunities to learn more about the expansive and complex history of this unique Southern identity.

Both books will be available for purchase at the Shop before and during the signing. Admission is free and open to the public.
