After Dark: Creole Death and Mourning Tour

  • Gallier House 1132 Royal Street New Orleans, LA 70116 (map)

Join us for a seasonal favorite, the Creole Death and Mourning exhibition at Gallier House…after dark! Tour the historic Victorian townhome in mourning and learn about a time period when death and the macabre were pervasive. For Catholic Creoles in New Orleans, mourning rituals were an integral part of 19th-century life and a sincere effort to remember departed relatives and friends. After the tour, enjoy wine in the historic courtyard of Gallier House.

Don’t hesitate - this event WILL sell out!
