Our Favorite Fathers Brunch honors men who are making a difference in the lives of families and communities in New Orleans. This powerful event spotlights men across the spectrum of fatherhood — men who celebrate culture, fight for equity, honor legacy, and uplift communities. We call these men “Baba” — a denotation of “father” in African cultures.
In becoming an Ashé Cultural Arts Center Favorite Father, men join a community of over 500 men who are shepherding in the next generation with positivity, emotional intelligence, strength, and passion. In addition to honoring these men, we are also commemorating great fathers nationwide whose lives have been taken too soon by police brutality.
We are excited to partner with Shea Moisture for Men this year to provide our Favorite Fathers with a self-care package.
