The New Orleans Airlift

Exporting New Orleans' Art and Culture to the Wider World

The New Orleans Airlift is a multi-disciplinary arts organization that produces and facilitates innovative artistic opportunities for New Orleans-based artists locally and around the globe.

New Orleans Airlift projects transport the dynamic street culture, living folk culture and growing contemporary arts scene of New Orleans to far flung locations like London, Berlin, Los Angeles and New York for exhibitions, festivals and performances. The Airlift also brings influential artists from abroad to participate in cutting edge collaborations with local artists at home in our own community.

New Orleans Airlift projects increase exposure, amplify resources and aid the creative development of our city’s unique and irreplaceable creative community that still struggles for sustainability in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
