Odyssey 2021 Presented by IBERIABANK | First Horizon benefiting New Orleans Museum of Art

The New Orleans Museum of Art welcomed patrons invested in ensuring the Museum’s future of exemplary arts programming and community engagement.

Odyssey 2021 presented by IBERIABANK | First Horizon brought arts patrons together at the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) to raise critically important funds that support NOMA’s internationally-recognized exhibitions and educational programs.

The entire museum was open for guests to wander and explore, with musical performances taking place between the Great Hall and the newly renovated Lapis Center for the Arts. Lining the walls of the Lapis Center for the Arts is the monumental plaster relief mural by Enrique Alférez, entitled “Symbols of Communication”, which also served as the inspiration for this year’s theme.

Chaired by Katherine and Tony Gelderman and Jennifer and Dennis Lauscha, with NOMA Volunteer Committee Chair Robyn Dunn Schwarz, the evening began with an intimate Patron Party in the Great Hall, which offered passed hors d’oeuvres and champagne with musical accompaniment by a Latin guitar trio. Z Event Company provided event decor throughout NOMA.

Patrons enjoyed live entertainment by Elan Artists – Blue Rhythm Band, Boy Band and a Hamilton rap artist performance.
