A Tricentennial Commemorative Art Piece of 300 years of New Orleans History
New Orleans International Muralist (NOIM) is a cultural and economic driven organization that has established the longest mural in the country on the Tchoupitoulas floodwall with your support. This mural is an opportunity for organizations and companies to hold their place in New Orleans history by sponsoring a panel or a block of the mural that tells the story of the diverse and rich history of New Orleans. The mural has started to be painted at the 1900 Block of Tchoupitoulas by the Wal-Mart near the Police Station and ends at NOLA Brewing. We need your help in-order to complete this piece of history in New Orleans. We are seeking more corporate sponsorships and support from the community.
Under the artistic direction of renowned New Orleans artist Jamar D. Pierre, NOIM is in the process of painting a roughly one-mile long stretch of the Tchoupitoulas floodwall. Organized as an historical timeline of New Orleans beginning in the 1700s, upon completion, the mural will document over 300 years of New Orleans history up until present day. The Floodwall Mural project is an ongoing endeavor of NOIM. Financial support is derived from grants, fundraising events, and most importantly corporate and individual contributions. Get involved with this neighborhood beautification project and celebrate New Orleans history as a sponsor, donor, or volunteer. Contributions over $1,000 are tax deductible.
