Fellows and Circles Patrons

Fellows and Circles patrons provide the greatest support to NOMA and solidify our impact on the arts in New Orleans and the Gulf South. Supporters at these levels make new initiatives possible, helping NOMA fulfill its mission now and for years to come. Fellows and Circles patrons play an integral role in all that NOMA does—from presenting groundbreaking exhibitions to offering thoughtful education programs to students in New Orleans and beyond.
