NEW ORLEANS– The City of New Orleans’ Mayor LaToya Cantrell showed off some fancy footwork on Friday night.  Looks like she’s ready for “Dancing with the Stars.”  Cantrell was the opening entertainment for the “Dancing For the Arts” event to benefit Young Audiences Charter School.

Mayor Cantrell danced the tango with professional dancer, Ector Gutierrez.

Cantrell danced to kick off the night’s festivities, and then she spoke about the benefit of arts programs and dance in schools.

“Dancing For the Arts” is an annual fundraiser, and this year the event was held at Harrah’s Casino.
