Sips and spills from Bossier Arts Council

Flavored martinis were shaken, stirred and poured at Harrah’s Louisiana Downs’ Red River Room during the always-fun Artini April 16. The annual libation-themed fund-raiser for the Bossier Arts Council featured 17 different locally owned restaurants serving up their best martini to guests. Irene & the Sleepers provided entertainment, and Buttercups Cupcakes provided a collection of their favorite mini-cupcakes for dessert. Money raised from the event directly benefits the Bossier Arts Council.
