Exploring Art and Culture: Southern University Laboratory School Visits the New Orleans Art Museum
Recently, the students of Southern University Laboratory School embarked on an enriching journey to explore the vibrant art culture of New Orleans at the esteemed New Orleans Art Museum (NOMA).
Founded on December 16, 1911, with just nine works of art, NOMA has since evolved into a renowned institution boasting an impressive permanent collection of nearly 50,000 artworks. With extraordinary strengths in French and American art, photography, glass, and African and Japanese works, NOMA stands as one of the premier art museums in the South.
During their visit, our students had the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich artistic heritage of New Orleans firsthand. From iconic masterpieces to contemporary creations, they were able to appreciate and examine a diverse array of artworks, gaining valuable insights into the cultural tapestry of the city.
As they roamed through the museum's halls, our students were captivated by the beauty and significance of each piece, fostering a deeper appreciation for the arts and igniting their creativity. The experience not only broadened their artistic horizons but also encouraged them to embrace the diverse perspectives and expressions showcased within the museum's walls.
At Southern University Laboratory School, we believe in the power of experiential learning to inspire and educate our students. Our visit to NOMA exemplifies our commitment to providing enriching opportunities that broaden their minds and enrich their lives.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to NOMA for opening its doors to our students and allowing them to embark on this unforgettable artistic journey. As we continue to nurture the next generation of thinkers, creators, and innovators, we look forward to many more opportunities for exploration and discovery.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates and adventures from Southern University Laboratory School! Thank you Ms. June for enlightening our students with this experience.
