Abstract

The Arts Council of Greater New Orleans was founded in 1975 in response to the recommendation of the City of New Orleans Cultural Resources Committee appointed by former Mayor Moon Landrieu. With primarily private support, the Arts Council initiated projects such as monumental sculpture exhibitions around the city, a weekly radio program, an arts hotline, and an arts program for the city's Downtown Development District, including six weeks of outdoor Brown Bag concerts at lunchtime and an annual downtown arts festival.
