White Linen Night in The Heights 2016

feature
It’s almost that time of the summer again; time for White Linen Night in The Heights, one of the city’s most fun events. It’s on Saturday, August 6th from 6pm-10pm.
White Linen Night in The Heights started in 2006 at the suggestion of New Orleans native and then Hurricane Katrina transplants Chris Thayer and his wife, Kay, who had opened a boutique on 19th Street when they were displaced by the storm. The event was patterned after a similar event in The French Quarter Arts district in New Orleans where residents came out dressed in their white linen finest to see local art. The Thayers and the Heights First Saturday group organized the event as a way to promote interest and traffic to 19th street so local businesses could thrive in the hot Houston summer. White Linen Night in the Heights is open to the general public with no admission fee.
