SUMMARY:POSTPONED | Healing Through History with Creative Assembly Cohort Member Dianne Honoré
DESCRIPTION:This event has been postponed. We look forward to announcing a new date soon. \n\nThis day-long workshop provides a space for collaborative learning about ethnic\, gendered\, and cultural practices that define our collective history and present reality. Led by Dianne Honoré\, one of NOMA’s Creative Assembly Cohort members\, program participants will explore local histories\, cultures\, and approaches to interpreting history and culture through talks\, performances\, and healing rituals. \nThe series promotes healing through safe\, engaging\, and respectful dialogue and activities among participants. Participants will adopt a traditional view of healing that emphasizes the power of narrative to promote well-being\, balance\, and harmony.  \nIndigenous elders believe that health is connected to understanding the story of our lives\, summed up in four questions: Who are we? Where did we come from? Why are we here? Where are we going? It is important to explore these questions as a collective to heal historical trauma within and between our communities. \nThis event is free and open to the public.  \n\nProgram Schedule\nLand Acknowledgment \nScierra LeGarde\, member of the Bayou Lacombe Band of Choctaw and People of the Sacred Medicine Trail \nIntroduction\nDianne Honoré \nTalk and Q&A |  Historical Trauma and Healing Practices \nHeather Goltz\, Professor of Social Work\, University of Houston \nHealing Dance  \nScierra LeGarde and the Bayou Lacombe Band of Choctaw \nTalk and Q+A | A Place Called Desire: Researching and Documenting Your History as a Healing Journey\nLeonard Smith III\, producer and director of the documentary A Place Called Desire \nAncestor Acknowledgement Poem Accompanied by Creole Chant \nPoem written by Laurita Marie\, Iyanifa\, Mambo Asogwe\, Nuisettes Noir Baby Doll.

Teresa Tumminello Brader\, niece of the convicted art forger William Toye\, retells her family’s experience as she discovers her uncle’s misdeeds after decades of secrecy. Personal reflections and newspaper records alternate with a fictionalized reimagining of Toye’s complicated life. On both sides of the story\, what emerges is an attempt to honor Louisiana artist Clementine Hunter’s legacy without flinching from the painful realities that come from reckoning with family bonds. Empathetic and honest\, Letting in Air and Light will inspire you to look more closely at your own history and wonder what else you might have missed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

Gray co-founded the Congo Square Foundation\, which is now the Congo Square Preservation Society. The organization was instrumental in the restoration of drumming and cultural activities in Congo Square. Due to the efforts of the Congo Square Foundation\,  Congo Square is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the organization led the effort to erect the Congo Square historic marker. \nGray led a team of artists\, which included visual artist Douglas Redd\, that carved three Bamboula drums from a one-hundred-year-old cypress tree\, which are now on display at the Louisiana State Museum in New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Gray founded and directed two bands\, Percussion Incorporated and Bamboula 2000\, for which he won the Big Easy Music Award in the World Music Category twice. Gray has produced several records; served as lead drummer for the Guardians of the Flame Mardi Gras Indians; and led workshops and tours for thousands of school-age children and adults yearly; and provided African drumming for events in Congo Square and throughout the city as the founding leader of the Congo Square Drum Circle\, which dates back to 1988. \nJamilah Yejide Peters-Muhammad\nJamilah Yejide Peters-Muhammad\, affectionately known as Mama Jamilah\, is a lifelong resident of New Orleans. Peters-Muhammad is a graduate of Dillard University where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing. Peters-Muhammad also holds a degree in Faith Community Nursing. During Peters-Muhammad’s career\, she worked at Touro Infirmary and Tulane Medical Center\, among others\, but left the hospital setting over three decades ago to pursue community-oriented practices. \nIn addition to community wellness\, Peters-Muhammad serves as a leader in preserving and promoting the cultural traditions of her African ancestors. Peters-Muhammad co-founded the Congo Square Preservation Society\, Kumbuka African Drum and Dance collective\, and Bamboula 2000. Peters-Muhammad has performed and taught African dance and culture for over 40 years. Peters-Muhammad is a gifted healer\, dancer\, singer\, percussionist\, and choreographer. Peters-Muhammad has been a part of the Black Masking Mardi Gras Indian tradition since age 16 and is presently a member of Guardians of the Flame Maroon Society. \nPeters-Muhammad is a mother\, grandmother\, and great-grandmother. She is a health and wellness consultant at the Ashé Cultural Arts Center\, the community outreach nurse for the New Orleans Musicians Assistance Foundation; and the leader of the health as well as the dance ministries at her church\, Christian Unity.

SUMMARY:Elders Sacred Talk Series with Willie Birch and Big Chief Joseph Pierre “Monk” Boudreaux
DESCRIPTION:NOMA and the Congo Square Preservation Society present the Elders Sacred Talk Series with prolific elder New Orleanians\, celebrating the lives they lead while providing the opportunity for visitors to learn firsthand about the impact they’ve had on our city. \nOn October 23\, in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts\, the program will feature Big Chief Joseph Pierre “Monk” Boudreaux\, the oldest Black Masking Indian\, and Willie Birch\, visual artist and activist\, in conversation. \nFree with museum admission. Louisiana residents receive free admission to NOMA on Wednesdays courtesy of The Helis Foundation. When you arrive at NOMA\, check in at the admissions desk for directions to the Lapis Center for the Arts. \n\nAbout the Speakers\nBig Chief Joseph Pierre “Monk” Boudreaux\nBig Chief Joseph Pierre “Monk” Boudreaux is celebrated as the oldest living Black Masking Indian Big Chief and has masked for 70 years. Starting at age 12\, Boudreaux masked with the White Eagles as the chief’s scout then moved to the 2nd Spy Boy. Boudreaux continued with the tribe under its new name\, Golden Eagles\, and became the Big Chief during the 1970s—a role that he has filled for over 50 years. \nIn the late 1960s\, Boudreaux and three other members of the Golden Eagles began performing musically with four members of the Wild Magnolias\, led by Big Chief Bo Dollis. Members of the two tribes appeared together at the 1st New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 1970. The performance resulted in the recording of Handa Wanda\, the 1st studio-recorded music by Black Masking Indians. Boudreaux’s album\, Bloodstains & Teardrops was nominated for a Grammy. Boudreaux has received a National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage award\, is the inspiration behind a character in the HBO series Tremé\, and is featured in documentaries and on murals around the city. At age 82\, Boudreaux continues to expand his legacy as a cultural hero and musical icon. \nWillie Birch\nVisual artist and activist Willie Birch creates paintings\, drawings\, and sculptures that often center on spaces\, objects\, and scenes of daily life around his native New Orleans. Birch’s work is described in his Prospect 5 biography as\, “testaments to Black life in the city and to spaces of togetherness\, individuality\, ritual\, celebration\, domesticity\, creativity\, labor\, and rest.” Birch’s art incorporates an encyclopedic knowledge of European paintings\, African art\, and history to create a style that is entirely his own. \nBirch’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is included in major museum collections across the country. Birch has received awards from the Guggenheim\, Pollock-Krasner\, the Joan Mitchell Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the Governor’s Award from the State of Louisiana. Birch’s artist residencies range from the Studio Museum in Harlem to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation. Birch lived in New York for much of the 1970s and 80s and traveled the world before returning home in 1994. In 2023\, Birch was interviewed by BOMB as part of their Oral History Project. It was their “lengthiest and most vivacious interview to date.” At age 81\, Birch continues to create work that celebrates and documents his beloved city. \n\nAbout Art Thrives\nNOMA’s Art Thrives initiative presents creative aging programs designed to support visitors ages 55 and up. In addition to art-making workshops\, courses\, and opportunities for hands-on art-making\, the Elders Sacred Talk Series is a platform for older adults to share their experiences with audiences of all ages.
