NEW ORLEANS — Beloved Community, a leading equity-focused nonprofit organization based in New Orleans, will host the Regenerative Hospitality Public Forum on Tuesday, March 12, 2024, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The event will take place at the Tate, Etienne, Prevost (TEP) Center, Rear Annex Building, located at 5909 Marais Street, New Orleans, LA 70117, in the Lower 9th Ward.
This initiative aims to collaboratively develop quality job solutions in the hospitality, tourism, and culture sectors that align with the conservation of local culture, families, and communities, particularly focusing on native BIPOC New Orleanians and environmental sustainability.

The Regenerative Hospitality Public Forum is part of a series of three listening session events, including a Roundtable Breakfast and a Focus Group, designed to engage hospitality and culture workers, proactive residents, and community and industry leaders.
