Some of the best attractions in
downtown New Orleans are the incredible museums! Even if you're a local,
chances are you may not have been to every museum the city has to offer. Of
course, the widely known National WWII Museum and the New Orleans Museum of Art
are both incredible experiences, but this month, there is an opportunity to be
reminded of the multitude of unique museums all over the city. Throughout
August, 23 participating New Orleans museums are giving members the opportunity
to visit free of charge! Not a member? No worries. Join a participating museum
online today!
Museum Month is a great opportunity
to learn about the rich culture of New Orleans by revisiting a favorite or
experiencing a new museum. One of the participating museums is Studio Be. You
may have seen artist BMike's murals around town. Studio Be is BMike's first
solo show as a visual artist. The 35,000 square foot warehouse is located in
the Bywater neighborhood. Other participating museums include the Ashe Cultural
Arts Center and the Sazerac House, where you can enjoy interactive cocktail
exhibits and exclusive spirit tastings! Make a day of it: start with a historic
Sazerac and then head to the Ogden Museum of Southern Art and the Contemporary
Arts Center, both located on Camp Street.
