New Orleans Museums

December 20, 2011 – 7:29 pm

New Orleans has no lack of museums, and as always, they celebrate the city’s renowned diversity. For starters, there’s your traditional art museum, celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. That is New Orleans’ flagship art museum, the New Orleans Museum of Art in City Park. It’s under new leadership in the person of Susan Taylor, and is proudly moving into its second century. NOMA’s holdings include a significant collection of decorative arts and photography as well as painting, but for its second hundred years, it’s widening the spectrum of pieces in the permanent collection in its new show, NOMA 100.

Experience the Cabildo

July 13, 2011 – 11:24 am

When most people think of New Orleans, they think of the food, drink, and music that this city is famous for. While these things are worth savoring and experiencing, there is so much more to this beautiful city than simply food, drink, and music. New Orleans is one of the most, if not the most, historically exciting cities in the United States. This rich history is shown through in the architecture of this amazing city as well as the many museums that New Orleans has to offer.

To see the greatness of the museums that New Orleans has no offer one needs to look no further than the Louisiana State Museum. This museum’s collection is so large that it cannot be housed in one building alone, but is spread throughout five different locations, all in the beautiful French Quarter of New Orleans. One of these five locations is the Cabildo.
