History and tradition
Beignet Fest was created by a New Orleans family in 2016 after Amy and Sherwood Collins saw a need for more programs serving children on the autism spectrum. The festival grew from that mission into a citywide celebration of traditional and inventive beignets, with proceeds supporting programs for children with autism and related developmental needs.
