“Nicolas Floc’h: Fleuves-Océan, Mississippi Watershed” 

New at the New Orleans Museum of Art, this exhibition pairs vibrant monochromatic photographs of the color of water made under the surface with dramatic black-and-white landscape photographs made along the banks of the Mississippi and its tributaries—from Louisiana and across the country. See it from April 30 through February 22. 

"Pioneers of Women's Carnival" 

This exhibition focuses on pioneering women’s krewes that created a space for themselves in Carnival beginning in the late 1800s, inspiring dozens of other women’s krewes that were successfully founded in their wake. Spanning centuries, it takes us to the state of women’s Carnival today, which includes several all-female krewes and some founded specifically by and for Black women. The exhibition will include numerous beautiful costumes, costume designs, photographs, unique ball favors, and parade throws. See it at The Presbytère beginning May 9.
