(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Bywater Historic District
We'll meet at St. Coffee on St. Claude before setting out on a photogenic walk full of hidden street art and local art history taking place in the 9th, 8th and 7th Wards. The areas we'll explore in the Bywater Historic District are truly "off the beaten path" and go unmentioned by guide or travel books. You'll be introduced to local and traveling artists and the various mediums used for public arts as we amble down the street.
St. Roch Market
We'll learn about local art history and interpret a work of art in the St. Roch Historic District, then stop for a short break at the 149 year-old St. Roch Market, where guests will have access to gourmet snacks, drinks (including craft cocktails, beer, and wine), cold water, and clean bathrooms.
Faubourg Marigny
We'll interact with shimmering mosaic art created by international artist Laurel True, visit a multitude of murals created by some of the city's most well-known street artists, and explore a short stretch of road that has become the site of more than two dozen public works of art.
