what is st. joseph's day
The St. Joseph's Day altars, like this one at Lost Love Lounge on St. Joseph's Day March 19, 2015, are beautiful displays of artistry and faith. St. Joseph Day altars are ubiquitous in New Orleans. You find them in churches, community centers, bars, hotels -- even grocery stores. For many of us who grew up in the heavily Catholic New Orleans area, the altars are a common custom.
