Created in 1911, the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) originally had only nine pieces on display. Today, it houses over 40,000 paintings, drawings, sculptures, and other objects. NOMA is well known for its collections of French, Japanese, African, and American art, photography, and glass. The Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden is a phenomenal five-acre attraction that has some of America's most important and treasured sculptural pieces. The collection is outside under a canopy of live oaks and Spanish moss.
