JAMNOLA turns one

In creative partnership with Where Y’Art, JAMNOLA was founded by Jonny Liss and Chad Smith. JAMNOLA is New Orleans’ first experimental pop-up that takes audiences of all ages on a topsy-turvy stroll through some of the cultures that make our city so special. The immersive 12 room exhibit is 5,400 square feet of pure NOLA joy, celebrating the iconic art, music, food, and theatrics of the city, through the eyes of 20+ local artists.

Blinged-out umbrellas, giant crawfish, feather chandeliers, a sequined alligator, a virtual costume closet –  JAMNOLA is best described as a visual love letter to New Orleans.

Since opening in August 2020, over 60,000 visitors from across the country have toured JAMNOLA to learn about New Orleans’ unique art, history, and culture. Their specialty is showcasing art created by the city’s local culture bearers. Not only that, but they’ve also raised over $20,000 for local nonprofits, including Feed the Second LineNew Orleans Musicians ClinicRoots of Music, and House of Tulip.
