 A Streetcar Named Inspire

 

The streets of New Orleans are a bit more colorful this year with the addition of some 80 replica streetcar sculptures designed and painted by local artists. The public art display, A Streetcar Named Inspire, was created post-Hurricane Katrina to provide a tangible sign of hope and recovery to citizens and visitors of New Orleans.  

Leaders: Mike Atwater matwate@entergy.com, Jude Boudreaux jude.boudreaux@gmail.com and Paula Purvis ppurvis@lepavillon.com.
