The mural

The mural starts at the 1900 Block of Tchoupitoulas near Wal-Mart and ends at NOLA Brewing. Under the artistic direction of renowned New Orleans artist Jamar D. Pierre, NOIM is in the process of painting a roughly one-mile long stretch of the Tchoupitoulas floodwall. Organized as an historical timeline of New Orleans beginning in the 1700s, upon completion, the mural will document over 300 years of New Orleans history up until present day.

a first of its kind

The Tchoupitoulas Floodwall Mural Project is a carefully designed effort between the New Orleans International Muralists and the New Orleans Flood Protection Authority.

Located along a highly trafficked corridor the enormous project serves as a teaching opportunity that connects New Orleans’ past, present, and future. Planning for the murals began nearly four years ago. The mile-long historical mural is the first time the Flood Protection Authority has granted permits and allowed the floodwall to turn from ‘concrete to canvas’.
