SUMMARY:Music in the Garden: Kr3wcial and Khiry Bey
DESCRIPTION:NOMA presents Music in the Garden\, a seasonal outdoor music series hosted in the Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden.  \nEncounter the sounds of local New Orleans musicians while strolling through the Besthoff Sculpture Garden on select Sunday afternoons throughout the year. Performances will take place alongside sculptures across the garden. \nThis installment of Music in the Garden will feature acoustic sets from Kr3wcial and saxophonist Khiry Bey. \nAttendance for this event is free. Registration is recommended. \nRegister Here \nPerformance Schedule\n\n\n\nPerformer\nTime and Location\n\n\nKhiry Bey\n2:00 – 3:00 pm\n\n\nKr3wcial\n3:00 – 4:00 pm\n\n\n\n  \n\nAbout the Performers\nKhiry Bey\n \nBorn and raised in New Orleans\, saxophonist Kirsten Theodore (Khiry Bey) began showing an interest in music at the tender age of five. As Theodore matured as a musician\, she fell in love with the alto saxophone. Since middle school\, she has played the alto sax in performances with everyone from Jon Batiste to Herbie Hancock\, won multiple awards for her solos\, and composed original music that debuted at the New\nOrleans House of Blues Music Forward Foundation. Kirsten has earned numerous awards at competitions and festivals\, starting in middle school\, when she won first place in the Louisiana District VI Honor Band\nfor three years. At age thirteen\, she was awarded “outstanding soloist” at Orlando’s Disney Music Festival and also “best soloist” at The Loyola University Jazz\nFestival. In 2017\, she was selected as a finalist for the House of Blues’s Music Forward: Bringing Down the House showcase\, where she headlined her first show.\n\nTheodore has performed and worked with many artists such as Herbie Hancock\, Jon Batiste\, Trombone Shorty\, Wendell Brunious\, Roderick Paulin\, Jessie McBride\, Clarence Johnson\, Irvin Mayfield\, Glen David Andrews\, Jeffrey “Jellybean” Alexander\, Delfeayo Marsalis\, and more. Theodore attended the Berklee College of Music Women in Jazz summer program and studied under Terri Lynne Carrington and Tia Fuller. Theodore is a graduate of the New Orleans Center For Creative Arts. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Jazz Studies at University of New Orleans and will be pursing a master’s degrees at Tulane University. While furthering her education\, she has launched a For NOLA by NOLA project with all local musicians to pay homage to the great city that created her.\nKr3wcial\n \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. Kr3wcial is also an alumnus of NOMA’s Creative Assembly residency program.

Register by 9:00 am on Thursday\, November 13\, to receive your Zoom link.  \nRegister Now \nNOMA’s book club is an informal group open to anyone on a month-to-month basis. You do not have to attend every meeting or read every book to participate.

Participants are expected to procure their own copy of the titles. Selections are also available at the NOMA Museum Shop\, where museum members receive a 10% discount. \nMeetings are held in person or via Zoom. All meetings begin at 12 pm. For more information or questions\, please email programs@noma.org. \n\nAbout the Book\nAbout Clint Smith\nAuthor and Journalist Clint Smith\, photo by Calvin Gavion \nClint Smith is the author of the narrative nonfiction book\, How the Word Is Passed: A Reckoning With the History of Slavery Across America\,  which was a #1 New York Times bestseller\, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction\, the Hillman Prize for Book Journalism\, the Stowe Prize\, and selected by the New York Times as one of the 10 best books of 2021.  How the Word Is Passed (Adapted for Young Readers)\, with Sonja Cherry-Paul\, will be published in September 2025 (Little\, Brown). He is also the author of the New York Times bestselling poetry collection Above Ground and the award-winning poetry collection Counting Descent. His writing has been published in The New Yorker\, The New York Times Magazine\, Poetry Magazine\, The Paris Review\, and elsewhere. Clint received his B.A. in English from Davidson College and a Ph.D. in Education from Harvard University. He is a staff writer at The Atlantic. \nHow the Word Is Passed: A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America\nby Clint Smith\n\n\nBeginning in his hometown of New Orleans\, Clint Smith leads the reader on an unforgettable tour of monuments and landmarks—those that are honest about the past and those that are not—that offer an intergenerational story of how slavery has been central in shaping our nation’s collective history\, and ourselves.It is the story of the Monticello Plantation in Virginia\, the estate where Thomas Jefferson wrote letters espousing the urgent need for liberty while enslaving more than four hundred people. It is the story of the Whitney Plantation\, one of the only former plantations devoted to preserving the experience of the enslaved people whose lives and work sustained it. It is the story of Angola\, a former plantation-turned-maximum-security prison in Louisiana that is filled with Black men who work across the 18\,000-acre land for virtually no pay. And it is the story of Blandford Cemetery\, the final resting place of tens of thousands of Confederate soldiers.A deeply researched and transporting exploration of the legacy of slavery and its imprint on centuries of American history\, How the Word Is Passed illustrates how some of our country’s most essential stories are hidden in plain view—whether in places we might drive by on our way to work\, holidays such as Juneteenth\, or entire neighborhoods like downtown Manhattan\, where the brutal history of the trade in enslaved men\, women\, and children has been deeply imprinted. \nInformed by scholarship and brought to life by the story of people living today\, Smith’s debut work of nonfiction is a landmark of reflection and insight that offers a new understanding of the hopeful role that memory and history can play in making sense of our country and how it has come to be.

SUMMARY:Butterfly Music Series: Henrietta Alves
DESCRIPTION:Experience part of Super Bowl LIX history and enjoy music played on Suleika Jaouad and Jon Batiste’s custom Yamaha piano on view at NOMA. Batiste performed his moving rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner on this instrument in the Caesars Superdome during the Super Bowl pregame show. \nThis series celebrates the piano’s residency at NOMA and pays homage to the musical history of New Orleans by inviting New Orleans–based musicians to offer intimate sets in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts\, which also features bas-relief murals by Enrique Alférez. \nThis installment of the Butterfly Music Series will feature pianist Henrietta Alves. Previous performers have included Amina Figarova\, David Torkanowsky\, Tonya Boyd Cannon\, Sam Kuslan\, and others. \nAttendance is included with museum admission. Preregistration for this event is recommended. Seating is limited and not guaranteed with attendance. \nRegister Now \n\nAbout Henrietta Alves\nHenrietta Alves—called “a New Orleans legend” by WWOZ\, “the Amazing Henrietta” by AntiGravity Magazine\, and introduced by Quint Davis as “a New Orleans institution”—has been a beloved local musician and songwriter for more than 40 years. Her popular Mardi Gras song was recorded with Smokey Johnson (Fats Domino’s drummer) and George French (Fats’ bassist and Cosimo Matassa studio musician). She began recording in the early 1970s in Memphis with producer Willie Mitchell and has contributed to numerous New Orleans projects\, including a jazz album with Flora Purim and a WEZB compilation of the city’s top pop acts. \nA versatile\, ageless singer now in her 80s\, Henrietta performs weekly at Holy Diver in Tremé and has maintained a strong presence across the region for 45 years with regular appearances at Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro\, Pat O’Brien’s Piano Bar\, and Morgan Freeman’s Ground Zero Blues Club in Biloxi. She’s performed Brazilian jazz at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival — she and bandleader Edu were famously the first couple married at Jazz Fest in 1982 — and has sung the National Anthem at Saints games on multiple occasions.\n\nOn television she’s frequently cast as the quintessential “older New Orleans–style singing pianist\,” appearing in series such as HBO’s Togetherness and TNT’s Claws. Nationally she’s performed at iconic venues including the Troubadour\, Chateau Marmont\, the Roosevelt Hotel (L.A.)\, Catch a Rising Star and Mimi’s Piano Bar (NYC). Internationally she has brought her New Orleans–inflected music to audiences in Japan\, Italy and Brazil\, and she has played private events for corporations and celebrities. Renowned for her warm\, intimate connection with audiences\, Henrietta continues to captivate crowds of any size.\nAbout the Work\nFor a limited time\, NOMA visitors have the unique opportunity to see the custom piano played by acclaimed musical artist Jon Batiste during the Super Bowl LIX pregame show. On view in the museum’s Lapis Center for the Arts\, the vibrant and colorful grand piano features a design by artist and bestselling author Suleika Jaouad\, who is Batiste’s wife. \nLEARN MORE

SUMMARY:Elders Sacred Talk Series: Big Chief Tyrone Casby and Beverly Stanton McKenna
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. \nThis conversation between Big Chief Tyrone Casby and Beverly Stanton McKenna will be moderated by Big Chief Dow Edwards. \n\nThis program is included with museum admission\, which is free for Louisiana residents every Wednesday courtesy of The Helis Foundation’s Art for All initiative.\n\n\nAbout the Speakers\nBig Chief Tyrone Casby\n \n\nTyrone Casby is the legendary Big Chief of the Mohawk Hunters Mardi Gras Indian Tribe and a distinguished high school principal\, coach and mentor. He is lauded for perpetuating cultural pride in classrooms and communities on the Westbank of New Orleans. Casby became a part of the masking culture at the age of six following his older brother\, Wildman Ralph “Tickleman” Casby\, of the Mohawk Hunters\, through Algiers on Mardi Gras Day. He first masked with the tribe (whose first Big Chief was his uncle\, Frank Casby\, Sr) in 1966 as 2nd Spy Boy. He was appointed 1st Chief in 1979 and the next year\, he became the Big Chief. \n\nToday\, averaging 30 members\, the Mohawk Hunters is one of the largest tribes in New Orleans and the only one on the West Bank. Members have performed in Sri Lanka\, Guatemala and Honduras. Local programs include sewing and beading patches with prison inmates. Casby has masked for 58 years lifting the spirits of people in Algiers\, perpetuating the culture\, promoting positive family and community values\, and inspiring those who cross his path. \n\n\nBeverly Stanton McKenna\n \nBeverly Stanton McKenna is a publisher\, cultural preservationist\, community leader and business investor. She and her life partner (Dr. Dwight McKenna) have spent decades building institutions that make New Orleans more informed\, just\, and deeply connected to its own history. Together they revived The New Orleans Tribune\, a storied Black newspaper; created two museums (The Le Musée de f.p.c. and The George & Lean McKenna Museum of African American Art); and played a pivotal role in the revitalization of Bayou Road business district. \n\nMcKenna\, a trained journalist and cultural historian\, earned a degree in English from Tennessee State University before teaching in Washington\, D.C. and working as a public information officer for the U.S. Virgin Islands. In New Orleans\, she has mentored emerging writers and editors\, and has helped position the Tribune as a trusted voice on policy\, politics\, education\, and the daily lives of Black New Orleanians. \n  \n\n\n\nAbout Elders Sacred Talks and 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 provides a platform for older adults in New Orleans to share their experiences with audiences of all ages. \nThe Elders Sacred Talk Series is presented in partnership between NOMA and the Congo Square Preservation Society.

SUMMARY:Lecture | "Here in This Place": Developing Place-Based Awareness through Land and Labor Acknowledgements
DESCRIPTION:Join us in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts for a conversation on the importance of Land and Labor acknowledgments with Sherry Parfait & Solomon Matthews\, moderated by Queen Mother Sula. \nRecognizing our connections to the land and to one another is essential in fostering a sense of community\, allowing us to navigate a shared awareness of place. The land bridges our imagined past with our experiences in the present. Much of the success of Louisiana today is founded not only on the forced labor of enslaved people\, but also on the generations of experience and knowledge of indigenous nations and communities in this area. The practice of developing and using a Land Acknowledgment statement is to meaningfully recognize the original inhabitants of a location\, their experiences of forced removal\, and the dispossession of their ancestral homelands. Similarly\, a Labor Acknowledgment statement reminds us that much of the economic progress and development we see today has often been built upon the unpaid labor and forced servitude of enslaved people.  \nThis featured lecture inspired by the current special exhibitions Dawoud Bey: Elegy & Nicolas Floc’h: Fleuves-Océan\, Mississippi Watershed will explore how acknowledgment fosters community\, accountability\, and a shared awareness of place.  \nDoors open at 5:00 pm. The lecture starts at 5:30 pm\, followed by a Q&A. \nThis program is free and open to all. Seating is first come first served\, advance registration is suggested. \nREGISTER HERE \n\nAbout the Speakers and Moderator\nSherry Parfait\n \nSherry Parfait is an enrolled citizen of the United Houma Nation (UHN)\, Louisiana’s largest Indigenous Tribe\, and she has been a New Orleans resident for seven years. She provides public relations and marketing services to the UHN and serves as the Editor of the UHN Quarterly\, the Nation’s newspaper. She also works for Gordon Arata Montgomery Barnett\, a full-service law firm in downtown New Orleans\, where she provides administrative and marketing support and serves as Co-Chair of the firm’s Diversity Committee. Sherry is a Chips Quinn Scholar and a member of the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI)\, and she is Vice President of the New Orleans Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA). She is also working on a Master’s degree in Marketing & Communications at Loyola University. \n  \nSolomon Matthews\n \nBorn in Mid-City New Orleans at Charity Hospital and raised in Kenner\, Louisiana\, Solomon Matthews is a dedicated educator\, advisor\, and cultural advocate. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Northwestern State University of Louisiana and a master’s degree in Education from the University of Southern California. \nSolomon’s professional career spans academic and career advising\, as well as leadership in new student and family programs within higher education settings. After returning home to New Orleans\, he transitioned into community-based arts and cultural work\, first serving as the Community Programs Director at Ashé Cultural Arts Center and now as its Program Officer. He also teaches as an adjunct faculty member in Delgado Community College’s Adult Education program. In all his roles\, Solomon is committed to strengthening community engagement\, expanding creative programming\, and uplifting the cultural legacy of the city. \n  \nQueen Mother Sula\n \nQueen Mother Sula’s bio will be available soon.
