Congratulations to Octavia Books in New Orleans, which celebrated its 15th anniversary last Saturday by "serving up some fun music, art, literature, cake and sparkling refreshments." Customers were invited to dress up like their favorite literary character and listen to music by NOLA songwriter/piano player/singer Phil Melancon, while the city's "fastest caricature artist Steve Lindsley captures your essence on paper before you can tell what's happened."
On Facebook, Octavia Books co-owners Tom Lowenburg and Judith Lafitte wrote: "We hope we have and will continue to enrich your life and the life of our precious community. Thanks for being part of the story with us. And, as with many of the books we read, we know the best is yet."
