NEW ORLEANS (AP) – More than 25 years ago, Pope John Paul II made a historic visit to New Orleans. Now, a new generation has the chance to experience some of those memories through an exhibit at the New Orleans Museum of Art.
“Portrait of Faith: John Paul II in Life and Art” opened Friday, March 8, and features photographs of the late pontiff’s 1987 visit to New Orleans, as well as fine art, artifacts and sacred objects related to him. The exhibit will run through June 16.
Tickets are $15 for regular adult admission, $13 for seniors and active military, and $6 for children.
