Threadhead Patry
Tuesday, April 30, 2024 No, it’s not a typo…. it’s the hottest ticket in town during Jazz Fest! Held each year on the Tuesday between Jazz Fest weekends, the enormously popular Patry features a huge line-up of New Orleans musicians as well as cameos by various surprise guests. Generous sponsorship from businesses and individuals, together with much sought after raffle items, allows the Foundation to raise substantial sums for our programs. See the Patry page for more information.
Threadhead Charity Raffle
Special Fall 2024 Raffle! Our Paul Simon Signature Guitar raffle will run September 16 – October 19, 2024. Please see the dedicated Raffle website at www.threadheadraffle.org for more information.
Each year since 2005, Threadheads have conducted a charity raffle to benefit various non-profit organizations and causes in New Orleans. The raffle was initiated as part of the give-back philosophy adopted by Threadheads in the wake of Hurricane Katrina and in the years since, over $130,000 dollars has been raised and distributed. The 2023 Online Spring Raffle wrapped up on 4/21/23 — we raised $23,188.50. The winners list is posted here.
