Su-Jit Lin once left her native New York on a whim and a gut feeling and has yet to regret the spontaneous shift that has led her to one of the most amazing and character-rich cities in the world. A cum laude Tulane University graduate, majoring in History and English, she has found it impossible to stay away from the one place that’s managed to capture her heart and speak to her spirit: New Orleans. Residing uptown, working downtown, and writing for Where Y'At Magazine smack dab in the middle of the Garden District, she takes full advantage of everything in between – or at least tries desperately to keep up with the frenzied activity! Pastimes include freelance writing and editing, travel, painting, music, her dog, and excuses to wear a scarf. Most importantly, she loves with a deep passion good food and drink, and all things New Orleans … even the poisonous caterpillars that seem programmed to find her year round.

Get Dirty in the Dirty-Dirty
... but do it tastefully, stylishly. Or at least, creatively. But above all, make sure to do it artfully.
I'm referring, of course, to Dirty Linen Night in the French Quarter, the answer to the ritzy, more formal affair that took place in Gallery Row in the Warehouse District just last week. This Saturday, August 9, this very public exhibit invites all to come by Royal Street, home of fine art galleries and even finer antique dealers, Jackson Square, where artists struggle to find both inspiration and buyers, sometimes both at once, and the Dutch Alley Artist's Co-Op on the corners of Dumaine and Decatur.
