Louisiana State University Museum of Art
The Anglo-American Art Museum opened in 1962 in the Memorial Tower on LSU's Baton Rouge campus. The museum and its collection were established through a generous gift to LSU in 1959 from an anonymous donor who wished to support an institution that would illustrate British and continental influences on early American art and culture in the South. The museum's significant collection of American and British portraiture, furniture, and decorative arts grew from this foundation.




  

New Orleans

Contemporary Arts Center New Orleans

Since 1976, the Contemporary Arts Center has been home to artists’ bold experiments in painting, theater, photography, performance art, dance, music, video, education, and sculpture. Situated at the gateway to New Orleans’ Downtown Arts District, our award-winning building houses 10,000 square feet of gallery space dedicated to rotating exhibitions throughout the year. Additionally, the CAC and local performers stage several dozen plays, dance events, music concerts and performances in our two theaters. In our Rehearsal Hall and Art Lab, Artists For a Day workshops introduce young minds to artful excitement. Renovated in 1990, the CAC’s building mixes the timelessness of New Orleans’ historic architecture with contemporary materials, open spaces and site-specific art works created by Louisiana artists. You'll find an electrifying atmosphere for viewing, enjoying, studying, and debating art.
