Ashé Cultural Arts Center (an initiative of Efforts of Grace, Inc.), located at 1712 Oretha Castle Haley Blvd. in New Orleans, is an effort to combine the intentions of neighborhood and economic development with the awesome creative forces of culture, community and art. We use culture and art to promote individual, community and economic development. Central to this mission is the recognition that American society has a marginalized view of African-Americans and their participation in the social and culture of the nation. Our primary goal is to interrupt that social and cultural view, and to promote social and cultural equity. Thriving since 1998, Ashé is a gathering place for emerging and established artists to present, create and collaborate in giving life to their art. The center, a multi-faceted institution, contains two event halls and often houses concerts, banquets, seminars, theater, a year-round youth program and more.
