Caroline & Beau
Things to Do
Studio Be
Studio Be is an art gallery and so much more: it is "a space for the local community and the culture that comes from it, and a welcomed space for visitors across the globe - a place all those voices go to sharpen their critical voice and imagine a future that benefits us all."
Longue Vue House & Gardens
The Sterns, who built this beautiful home and gardens in 1921, were friends of Caroline's grandparents. Humanitarians and servant leaders who were ahead of their time, Edith and Edgar advocated for voting rights, creative expression, education, and many other causes. Stop by the new cafe before touring the beautiful gardens designed by Ellen Shipman, the "dean of women landscape architects" in the early 20th century.
Historic New Orlean Collection - Seignouret-Brulatour building
You could easily pass an entire day viewing the exquisite exhibits at the Historic New Orleans Collection. We recommend bookending your tour with a beverage and snacks at Antoine's Hermes Room and/or The Napoleon House.
The National WWII Museum
A sobering and inspirational experience. Don't miss the brief documentary film narrated by Tom Hanks!
Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden
The Sculpture Garden at New Orleans Museum of Art in City Park is a gem, a respite, a breath of fresh air and art. Take in the more than 90 works over 11 acres, then take amble over to Cafe du Monde (City Park edition) for coffee and beignets. (Note: we're partial to Beignets of all forms.)
Spyre Center
In case you need a retreat in the midst of the Big Easy, Spyre is your place for yoga, meditation, cold plunges, and hot saunas.
