The Odyssey Ball celebrates and enhances the New Orleans Museum of Art in an evening of unparalleled elegance. Critically important to our treasured museum and the wide community it serves, Odyssey raises the funds necessary to support NOMA’s nationally-recognized exhibitions and educational programs, which bring more than 250,000 annual visitors to the museum and sculpture garden.

Odyssey 2017 will commemorate the city’s Tri-centennial and highlight NOMA’s and Odyssey’s integral place in New Orleans’ cultural life and history. Odyssey — now in its 51st year — has created its own New Orleans tradition. Odyssey: A Celebration 300 Years in the Making presented by IBERIABANK will continue this legacy on Saturday, November 4, 2017 in NOMA’s enduring marble halls.
