PHILANTHROPIC FUN 1
Elegance and Exhibitions The New Orleans Museum of Art treasures the community supporting its nationally recognized exhibitions and education programs. By Shelby Simon
More than 500 attendees filled the New Orleans Museum of Art and Besthoff Sculpture Garden to fète “Odyssey 2019: Mystère Louisiane” presented by IBERIABANK for an evening of opulence amongst art. Sound House presented by Élan Artists performed live music. In addition to the natural beauty of the museum and sculpture garden, Z Events and Urban Earth Design Studio provided elegant décor and stunning floral arrangements. Partygoers enjoyed cuisine prepared by 1718 Catering & Events with libations courtesy of Sazerac Co. In lieu of the traditional auction, NOMA invited guests to “Sip and Give,” offering champagne to those patrons interested in supporting a variety of NOMA operational needs. “Odyssey Ball” raised funds to support NOMA’s nationally recognized exhibitions and educational programs. Co-Chairs were Anne and Edmund Redd and Rupa and Tarun Jolly. ✦
