Uncover your genuine self in a fun, Halloween‑day meditation workshop.
Join us for a fun, Halloween‑day workshop where we explore the “masks” we wear in everyday life, like the roles, expectations, and personas we slip into without even noticing.

It’s a refreshing, uplifting way to celebrate Halloween without any tricks, just meaningful treats for the soul. Refreshments will be served. 
Saturday, October 31st, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM. Free Event – Registration a Must at: <a href="https://shorturl.at/49DZ7" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://shorturl.at/49DZ7</a>

<h2><a target="_blank" href="https://www.zydecohotpeppers.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Corey Arceneaux and the Zydeco Hot Peppers</a></h2>
 Corey Arceneaux and the Zydeco Hot Peppers bring the heat of Southwest Louisiana straight to the DMV with an electrifying mix of authentic zydeco, Creole rhythms, and dance-floor energy. A Louisiana native, Corey Arceneaux is a powerhouse accordionist and bandleader whose sound is rooted in tradition and shaped by legends like Clifton Chenier and Buckwheat Zydeco—who also served as a mentor and friend. With five studio albums and decades of international touring, Corey delivers a show that’s as genuine as it is high-energy.
Now based in Virginia, Corey has assembled a seasoned all-star lineup of regional players who live and breathe roots music. The Zydeco Hot Peppers feature Ben Holmes (drums), a veteran of global zydeco tours and DC favorites; Doug Bell (guitar), a staple of the East Coast roots scene; Gene Monroe (bass), whose credits span blues, rock, and beyond; and Pat Clark (frottoir), a multi-instrumentalist with deep ties to New Orleans traditions. Together, they create a groove that’s equal parts bayou party and dancehall throwdown.
Whether it’s a festival stage, club night, or Mardi Gras celebration, Corey Arceneaux and the Zydeco Hot Peppers turn every performance into a full-on Louisiana experience—accordion-driven, rhythm-heavy, and impossible to sit still for.
