Review:
Established as the Delgado Museum of Art in 1911, the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) is the oldest fine arts museum in the city. It's a fun place to visit with curious explorers.
Situated in City Park, the Museum is home to a renowned sculpture garden and a magnificent permanent collection of almost 40,000 art objects. The collection, which has a distinct focus on French and American art, is made up of paintings, including works by masters of the School of Paris such as Picasso, Braque, Dufy and Miro, drawings, photography, glass, and African and Japanese works.
The five-acre Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden features over 60 sculptures dotted around a beautifully landscaped site and surrounded by winding footpaths, ancient oak trees, and pedestrian bridges, is one of the most important sculpture installations in the United States.
