Every week, NOMA hosts gallery talks in the museum and the Besthoff Sculpture Garden led by curators, artists, and other special guests. These lively, participatory conversations provide a moment to take a close look at one work—or a selection of works—currently on view.

In celebration of the opening of the special exhibition Dawoud Bey: Elegy, join Brian Piper; NOMA’s Freeman Family Curator of Photographs, Prints, and Drawings; for a conversation about works on view in the exhibition. The gallery talk will be offered at 12:30 and 6:00 pm this day.

Included with museum admission, which is free for Louisiana residents every Wednesday courtesy of The Helis Foundation’s Art for All initiative. When you arrive at NOMA, check in at the admissions desk for directions to the appropriate location.
