Since its early history as the New World's outpost of French culture, New Orleans has lived and breathed the heady delights of the arts. Each Thursday and Saturday evening the country's only musician-owned symphony presents a gala lineup of classics in its own Orpheum Theatre in the Central Business District. In the French Quarter, one of the oldest community theatres in the nation, Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre, offers a season of professional quality plus an uproarious on-going comedy, "Late Night Catechism," Thursday-Sundays. |
If you need more reasons to visit New Orleans and the Windsor Court here are more to choose from: Gallery Openings First Saturday of the Month
Art galleries lining Julia Street are festive with new exhibit openings the first Saturday of the month when art patrons flock to Julia Street for a stroll by the galleries as they put up their latest exhibits.
In the heart of the Warehouse District, adjacent to Windsor Court, walk the 300 to the 500 blocks, where you'll find Arthur Roger Gallery, Heriard-Cimino Gallery, LeMieux Galleries, Marguerite Oestreicher Fine Arts, and Sylvia Schmidt Gallery, among others. After taking in the exhibits, dine in one of the many hot restaurants in the neighborhood or head back to the Polo Club Lounge for cocktails and music or dinner in the New Orleans Grill. |
