Looks like the New Year is bringing a new gumbo festival to Mississippi, and we couldn’t be happier. Rock ’N’ Roux is a brand new gumbo cook-off that’s taking place in just a few short weeks, and you won’t want to miss it. Here’s what you need to know:
It will take place on the grounds of the 100 Men Hall from 11:30 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Founded in 1894 by 12 African American Bay St. Louis residents, the group was formed to help community members when needed. Once the current building was built in 1922, it became an energy center for all major life events, with countless legendary musical acts passing through. Just a few of the legends that have played here include Fats Domino, Etta James, and Ray Charles. Today it’s a stop along the Mississippi Blues Trail.
