"CONNECTIONS"

Chantelle Trainor-Matties and JoLean Williams-Laborde

In 2022 the New Orleans Mayor, the Canadian Consulate, and Arts New Orleans partnered to highlight the many historic and cultural connections between Canada and Louisiana. Canadian artist Chantelle Trainor-Matties designed this depiction of the Acadians' journey south. A heavy reliance on blue and green tones depicts the importance of water to both peoples and the mural incorporates wildlife important to each, including some from their shared folklore. In New Orleans the design was painted by JoLean Williams-Laborde at Ursulines Ave and N Peters St, behind the popular French Market. 

LOCATION: 1100 N Peters St, New Orleans, LA 70116
