Summer is coming in hot in Shreveport with so much going on and even more to look forward to.
From kitten ambushes to festivals to look forward to and to celebrating the first official Pride Month in Shreveport, here’s what you may have missed out on this week.
Kitten Ambush
A Northeast Louisiana man was headed home when he noticed a stray kitten in the road, his viral video of picking up the kitten and being ambushed by twelve more has made major headlines this week and we have an update.
Food Finds
Father’s Day is this Sunday and if you’re looking to take your father-figure out for a nice steak dinner, Shreveport has plenty of great options.
Downtown Art
The “Quilt Kiosk” sculpture located on Texas St. in downtown Shreveport is officially being repaired and the Shreveport Regional Arts Council needs the community’s help with this special reconstruction.
Festival Season
Summer means festivals all season long, last weekend the Bossier Arts Council held their annual ARTini festival and you can check out the photos and who won the signature martini contest here.
If you’re more into gardens than martinis, then you won’t want to miss out on the annual Sunflower Festival in Gilliam.
Taking Pride
Brie Silva is best known to Shreveport as ZaZa Gigante, the current titleholder for the Louisiana USofA 2022 Diva, but who is Brie?
