Three Haitain metal artists, SERGE JOLIMEAU, RONY JACQUES, and JACQUES EUGENE, contributed pieces to a show at the upstairs Evolve art-space of the Angela King Gallery
in New Orleans French Quarter during the 2019 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
The artists chose to have sales of their pieces benefit students at the Foyer Espoir Pour les Enfants (FEPE) orphanage and the Ecole Foyer Espoir school in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. All three artists are longtime friends of FEPE's founder, Madame Marie-Jose ("Marie-Jo") Poux, Haitian herself and a former Hospice Nurse in Cincinnatti, Ohio.
Seven of the artists' pieces sold through Sticking Up For Children at Evolve. Others sold at JazzFest's Cultural Exchange Pavillion, including three bought by the Festival's Director, Quint Davis.
