A Streetcar Named Desire

This is the third time New Orleans has participated in a public art project similar to other cities across the United States. First came the fish, then the fleur de lys. Last year the city welcomed streetcar art, “A Streetcar Named Inspire.” Artists decorated the streetcars that were eventually placed around town. Here is the one placed in front of the Prytania Theater. It is themed after the classic “A Streetcar Named Desire.” “Stella” screams across the back of the sculpture.

New Orleans Film Festival at the Prytania

The Prytania is a movie theater in Uptown New Orleans. Locals appreciate the fact they can still go to a movie close by instead of having to trek out to the suburbs. During the New Orleans Film Festival, it is one of three venues for viewing films. Last October I ran early before a film and decided to take these shots.
