He was arrested after fleeing a demonstration\, survived a near-lynching at the hands of law enforcement\, and spent seven years on chain gangs. During that time he met the undaunted Patsy\, who would become his wife. Years later\, at the age of fifty-one and with Patsy’s encouragement\, he started drawing and painting scenes from his youth using leather tooling skills he learned in prison. \nChasing Me to My Grave presents Rembert’s breathtaking body of work alongside his story\, as told to Tufts philosopher Erin I. Kelly. Rembert calls forth vibrant scenes of Black life on Cuthbert\, Georgia’s Hamilton Avenue\, where he first glimpsed the possibility of a life outside the cotton field. As he pays tribute\, exuberant and heartfelt\, to Cuthbert’s Black community and the people\, including Patsy\, who helped him to find the courage to revisit a traumatic past\, Rembert brings to life the promise and the danger of Civil Rights protest\, the brutalities of incarceration\, his search for his mother’s love\, and the epic bond he found with Patsy. \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.

SUMMARY:Soul-Sip at NOMA
DESCRIPTION:NOMA is committed to offering innovative experiences for learning and interpretation and uniting\, inspiring\, and engaging diverse communities and cultures. Throughout the year\, the museum provides an after-hours inclusive programmatic mix of unique experiences in response to art from across time and place. This summer\, NOMA presents Soul-Sip\, an art and wine series blending the sacred and social elements of guided meditation and wine appreciation to relax the mind\, elevate the seven senses\, and savor delicious sips of wine.  \nPerceptions about the cultural practices in museums are ever-changing. However\, one thing consistent within the culture of museums is receptions that include wine. Wine is among humankind’s oldest beverages\, regularly appearing in museums and pictured in paintings authenticated by ancient distilling pottery. It is the beverage of choice to mark exhibition openings\, closings\, receptions\, and other special occasions. \nThe evening includes guided meditation\, wine-tasting instruction\, a curated wine flight\, small bites from Cafe NOMA\, a discussion of select wine-related artwork from NOMA’s permanent collection\, and a little lagniappe! \nGeneral Admission $95 | NOMA Members $75 \nRegister Now \n\nAbout Soul-Sip®\nThe soul is the immaterial part of a human being\, the actuating cause of an individual life. A sip is the act of drinking by taking small mouthfuls. Soul-Sip blends the sacred and social elements of guided meditation and wine appreciation in a 60-minute class designed to relax the mind\, elevate the seven senses\, and savor delicious sips of wine. \nSense of Place Mat\nWhen you sit for meditation\, you use a mat\, cushion\, or chair to help create a calm\, sacred space for your practice. Soul-Sip classes use a placemat as your practice space; doodle\, decorate\, take notes\, roll it up at the end of class\, and take it with you!  \nWine Flights\nAligning what is in a wine glass with who is holding the glass opens a direct path to mindfulness. Soul-Sip wine selections represent an appreciation for the people\, places\, and vineyards who share the journey of sipping. The Vine Life Group curates wine flights for Soul-Sip. \nAbout the Instructor\nDr. Redell Hearn\, Ph.D.\, is Chief Educator at NOMA and the creator and instructor of Soul-Sip. Hearn is a museologist and Certified Chopra Health instructor with four decades of formal and informal study\, experimentation\, meditation\, yoga practice\, workshops\, courses\, seminars\, and retreats in the healing arts.

SUMMARY:Collaborating Across Continents: Developing a Contemporary Masquerade Exhibition for North American and African Audiences
DESCRIPTION:Join the New Orleans Museum of Art for a presentation on contemporary West African masquerade\, in advance of the upcoming exhibition New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations\, opening at the museum in April 2025. \nThe program will include a panel presentation and discussion with the exhibition’s curators; a first look at immersive documentary film clips from Sierra Leone\, Burkina Faso\, Nigeria\, and Cameroon; a signature West African-inspired cocktail; drumming performances; an opportunity to meet Dr. Aimé Kantoussan\, Research Director of the Museum of Black Civilizations in Dakar; and a virtual presentation from Cameroonian artist Hervé Youmbi. \nAdditional members of the New African Masquerades research team will present their developing scholarship and discuss the project’s ethical methodologies and foundational artistic\, community\, and institutional collaborations. \nThis program is free with advanced registration. \nRegister Now \n\nAbout New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations\nIn New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations\, an international team of scholars and artists present the stories of four individual masquerade artists\, their motivations\, artistic choices\, and the patronage and economic networks with which they engage in order to make clear that masquerade is fundamentally contemporary. The show offers fresh research models for contemporary masquerade\, bringing to the fore issues relating to restitution\, ownership\, and research ethics. This is the first major exhibition on contemporary West African masquerade artists to focus on individual creators rather than the typical presentation of masquerades as products of entire cultures\, which undermines the nuanced and layered stories that individual artists and masquerades tell.  \nThe exhibition team is led by Amanda M. Maples\, Françoise Billion Richardson Curator of African Art at NOMA. Co-curators include Jordan A. Fenton\, Associate Professor of Art History at Miami University Ohio\, and Lisa Homann\, Associate Professor of Art History at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Aimé Kantoussan\, Research Director at the Musée des Civilisations Noires/Museum of Black Civilizations (MCN) and Hervé Youmbi\, a leading contemporary artist in Cameroon\, are research collaborators and contributing authors.

SUMMARY:Soul-Sip at NOMA
DESCRIPTION:NOMA is committed to offering innovative experiences for learning and interpretation and uniting\, inspiring\, and engaging diverse communities and cultures. Throughout the year\, the museum provides an after-hours inclusive programmatic mix of unique experiences in response to art from across time and place. This summer\, NOMA presents Soul-Sip\, an art and wine series blending the sacred and social elements of guided meditation and wine appreciation to relax the mind\, elevate the seven senses\, and savor delicious sips of wine.  \nPerceptions about the cultural practices in museums are ever-changing. However\, one thing consistent within the culture of museums is receptions that include wine. Wine is among humankind’s oldest beverages\, regularly appearing in museums and pictured in paintings authenticated by ancient distilling pottery. It is the beverage of choice to mark exhibition openings\, closings\, receptions\, and other special occasions. \nThe evening includes guided meditation\, wine-tasting instruction\, a curated wine flight\, small bites from Cafe NOMA\, a discussion of select wine-related artwork from NOMA’s permanent collection\, and a little lagniappe! \nGeneral Admission $95 | NOMA Members $75 \nRegister Now \n\nAbout Soul-Sip®\nThe soul is the immaterial part of a human being\, the actuating cause of an individual life. A sip is the act of drinking by taking small mouthfuls. Soul-Sip blends the sacred and social elements of guided meditation and wine appreciation in a 60-minute class designed to relax the mind\, elevate the seven senses\, and savor delicious sips of wine. \nSense of Place Mat\nWhen you sit for meditation\, you use a mat\, cushion\, or chair to help create a calm\, sacred space for your practice. Soul-Sip classes use a placemat as your practice space; doodle\, decorate\, take notes\, roll it up at the end of class\, and take it with you!  \nWine Flights\nAligning what is in a wine glass with who is holding the glass opens a direct path to mindfulness. Soul-Sip wine selections represent an appreciation for the people\, places\, and vineyards who share the journey of sipping. The Vine Life Group curates wine flights for Soul-Sip. \nAbout the Instructor\nDr. Redell Hearn\, Ph.D.\, is Chief Educator at NOMA and the creator and instructor of Soul-Sip. Hearn is a museologist and Certified Chopra Health instructor with four decades of formal and informal study\, experimentation\, meditation\, yoga practice\, workshops\, courses\, seminars\, and retreats in the healing arts.

SUMMARY:Film Screening and Discussion: Katrina Babies
DESCRIPTION:NOMA hosts a screening of director Edward Buckles Jr.’s Katrina Babies\, a documentary offering an intimate look at the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and its impact on the youth of New Orleans. Following the screening\, Buckles will discuss the film in a conversation with Chike Ozah\, the film’s executive producer\, and Simone Immanuel\, one of NOMA’s Creative Assembly Cohort members\, in remembrance of the hurricane’s 19th anniversary. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Limited seating will be available. Seating is first come\, first serve. \n\nAbout the Documentary\nYears after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans\, an entire generation still grapples with the lifelong impact of having their childhood redefined by tragedy. New Orleans–born filmmaker Edward Buckles Jr.\, who was 13 years old during Katrina and its initial aftermath\, spent seven years documenting the stories of his peers who survived the storm as children\, using his community’s tradition of oral storytelling to open a door for healing and to capture the strength and spirit of his city. \nKatrina Babies details the close-knit families and vibrant communities of New Orleans whose lives were uprooted by the 2005 disaster. These American children who were airlifted out of the rising waters\, evacuated from their homes to refugee-like centers\, or placed in makeshift\, temporary living situations\, have been neglected. As families were tasked with reintegrating into new communities\, having experienced loss\, displacement\, and lack of support from government officials\, the children were left to process their trauma in a wounded\, fractured city. \nBuckles raises his camera to elevate the voices of his city; utilizing confessional-style footage\, home movies\, animation\, harrowing archival footage\, and candid interviews with Katrina survivors\, Buckles unearths a reservoir of grief and suppressed emotion. Through these moving\, first-hand accounts\, Katrina Babies journeys toward healing\, not just from the most destructive storm in US history\, but also from the multi-generational traumas of being black and disenfranchised in America.  In the face of systemic racism\, government neglect\, and the unprocessed pain of family separations\, the children of Katrina are left to chart their own path toward healing. \nAbout Edward Buckles Jr.\nEdward Buckles Jr. is the director of Katrina Babies. \nBuckles is a son of New Orleans. Buckles’ work calls his audience towards remembrance and to see the beauty in imperfections. The award-winning filmmaker\, director\, and producer continues to find inspiration in his people and innovative ways to share the stories of Black communities that would otherwise be lost in the passing of time. \nBuckles’ film Katrina Babies was shortlisted for a 2023 Academy Award. His production company\, House of the Young Ent. is a beacon in the New Orleans’ arts community and a platform for the culture of the city. Buckles’ was featured on DOC NYC’s 40 under 40 in 2022 and was awarded the New Orleans Film Society’s Rising Star Award. \nAbout Chike Ozah\nChike Ozah is the executive producer of Katrina Babies. \nOne-half of the award-winning directing duo Coodie & Chike\, Ozah has made a mark on the film industry with his innovative storytelling and approach. A New Orleans native\, Chike first collaborated with Coodie on the iconic music video “Through the Wire\,” which played a pivotal role in launching Kanye West’s career\, and Ozah has worked with other high-profile artists including the Black Keys\, Joey Bada$$\, Christina Aguilera\, Mos Def\, and Erykah Badu. \nOzah also executive produced Showtime’s NYC Point Gods\, directed by Sam Eliad and Akin Omotoso\, which delves into the legendary basketball culture of New York City\, and his upcoming project\, Meal Ticket\, directed by Chicago-based duo Corey Colvin & Carlton Sabbs\, highlights the prestigious McDonald’s All American Game\, continuing his tradition of supporting emerging filmmakers. Coodie & Chike’s work on the three-act Netflix docuseries Jeen-Yuhs earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Documentary/Nonfiction Series and won Best Music Documentary and Best Docu-Series at the 2022 Grierson Awards. \nAbout Simone Immanuel\nSimone Immanuel is a multidisciplinary artist and writer from New Orleans\, Louisiana. She attended the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and graduated with her BFA in theatre from Ball State University. She recently finished the Broadway Advocacy Coalition’s Artivism Fellowship and made her Off-Broadway debut in the play 7 Minutes by Stefano Massini.

SUMMARY:Breaking Boundaries: The Art of Hip-Hop with Creative Assembly Member Kr3wcial
DESCRIPTION:Kr3wcial\, one of NOMA’s Creative Assembly Cohort members\, presents “Breaking Boundaries: The Art of Hip-Hop\,” which includes a screening of the artist’s latest visual work Carry Me\, followed by insights into the creative process. The program includes a panel discussion moderated by N’Dia Dugue\, social media producer at BET Media Group\, with Kr3wcial and video directors Dexter Williams and Jovan Hernandez\, who will discuss hip-hop’s profound cultural impact and its recognition as an enduring artform. “Breaking Boundaries” explores how hip-hop continues to shape and reflect our world. \nThis event is free and open to the public.  \n\nAbout Dexter Williams\nDexter Williams is a New Orleans native who specializes in directing\, editing\, and producing industry-standard music videos as one of the top directors in New Orleans. Williams is the founder/creator of “Dope Media\,” a multimedia company that creates aesthetically pleasing\, visuals for companies and recording artists. Williams has over ten years of experience creating for clients internationally and locally. Williams has worked with several record labels\, including Roc Nation\, Atlantic and Empire along with production companies such as AMC and Amazon Prime. Wiliams music videos have been featured on BET Jams\, Revolt and have garnered millions of views on YouTube and Worldstar Hip-Hop. Williams has spent over a decade using his skills and techniques to tell the stories of New Orleans artists and the streets that made them. \nAbout N’Dia Dugue\nN’Dia Dugue is a social media producer at BET Media Group\, where she manages social platforms for BET and VH1 Networks. Dugue uses her passion for pop culture\, music\, and entertainment to craft strategies and produce engaging social content. Dugue has created short-form content for shows such as the “BET Awards\,” “Love & Hip Hop Miami\,” “America In Black\,” and the Webby honoree program “For The Fellas.” Dugue is from Brooklyn\, but her familial roots in New Orleans have called her to make the city her home. \nAbout Kr3wcial\nIn the vibrant tapestry of New Orleans’ rich musical heritage\, Kr3wcial emerges as a dynamic figure\, transcending the boundaries of traditional hip-hop. Born and raised in the heart of the Crescent City\, Kr3wcial’s music is a sonic journey through the soul of New Orleans itself. With lyrics that delve deep into the city’s intricate layers—from the gritty streets to the transcendent spirit of its people—he weaves a narrative that is both raw and poetic\, reminiscent of the city’s jazz and blues roots. Kr3wcial’s tracks\, often enlivened with the pulse of brass and the rhythm of New Orleans\, serve as a compelling commentary on the city’s multifaceted nature. Through his verses\, he explores themes of resilience\, identity\, and social consciousness. Beyond the studio\, Kr3wcial is a community advocate\, using his platform to inspire positive change. Collaborating with local nonprofits\, he harnesses the unifying power of music to uplift the very city that fuels his creativity. \nAbout Creative Assembly\nNOMA Creative Assembly seeks to give renewed expression to the diverse voices embodied in New Orleans’ various neighborhoods. These neighborhoods are places that give birth and places where the honored dead remain present. They invite belonging\, whether for a day or for many generations. Gathered between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain\, our neighborhoods are spaces where cultures flow from across continents and oceans to flourish. They are landscapes where nature takes on countless culinary\, linguistic\, ancestral\, and sacred forms. Neighborhoods allow us to share our anguish and ask us to offer a voice for those who have suffered in the silences of injustice and ignorance. Through music\, dance\, images\, and stories\, we hope to create a space of belonging where people can see reflections of their own neighborhoods and find themselves at home. \nLearn More
