Thank You, Houston: A Celebration of Gulf Coast Voices, Music and Food September 26, 2008

Houston's Katrina community postponed its September 13 commemoration of the hurricane’s third anniversary due to the impending landfall of Ike. Originally planned as an opportunity to express survivors’ gratitude to the city, Thank You, Houston, has been re-constituted as and re-scheduled a citywide salute to the generous spirit of giving that Houston has shown all of its residents – old and new – in such times of need. On Friday September 26, an evening program of music, food, stories and mixed media celebrating the rich traditions of the Gulf Coast will be combined with an assembly of organizations distributing information about Ike-related assistance, volunteerism and rehab, providing computer access and support, and recording citizens stories about Hurricane Ike.
