We regret to inform the New Orleans community that, due to an unexpected power outage at the Museum, today’s 7th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day Celebration has been canceled. We encourage everyone to stay warm as the cold weather approaches and to take a moment at home to honor and reflect on Dr. King’s enduring legacy.

Join Ogden Museum in celebrating the life and legacy of Civil Rights pioneer Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Visit the Museum for a family-friendly, FREE admission day exploring art and activism.
