The NOCCA Institute
Over two years ago The NOCCA Institute commissione Over two years ago The NOCCA Institute commissioned a mural at the site of Homer Plessy's historic arrest in 1892. Ayo Scott, a very talented Black artist, was asked to design and implement it. Mr. Scott submitted a design that was powerful and beautiful, depicting the long history of the civil rights struggle in America, and New Orleans in particular. The mural was finished in the spring of 2018, and it has become a gathering place for students, visitors, and people interested in the civil rights movement. We recently used an image from the mural in conjunction with a post in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Mr. Scott emailed The NOCCA Institute objecting to that post because he said that he was asked to remove a reference to Black Lives Matter from the mural when he designed it in 2017 and 2018. In response, we first apologize publicly to Mr. Scott. He graciously accepted input from us about the proposed mural, and in response, his design evolved over time. If any part of the process felt like censorship, that was a grave misstep on our part. For that we are truly sorry. If Mr. Scott is willing, we will work with him to update the mural in ways that better fit his vision and voice. We would also like to reaffirm our deeply held belief that Black lives matter and our unequivocal support for the Black Lives Matter movement, which carries on the important work of Homer Plessy and the Citizens Committee. Every day, we see first-hand the effect that generations of systemic racism have had on Louisiana's young people. We know that as a city, a nation, and a planet, we will never be at our best until all of us are treated fairly and equitably. Racial equity is one of The NOCCA Institute's core beliefs--it was then, and it remains so today. Equity and access inform the work that The NOCCA Institute does--that is why we felt so strongly about having a mural about the civil rights struggle in America on the lot where Homer Plessy was arrested well over 100 years ago. We aren't perfect, we frequently stumble, but we will always, always keep trying. Thanks to all who hold us accountable, and offer suggestions for how we can better serve our community.

Now, faculty and staff are traveling across 9 parishes, leading "Porch and Circumstance" graduation ceremonies for seniors. Congrats to the class of 2020! #graduatetogether

Hundreds of young artists from across southern Lou Hundreds of young artists from across southern Louisiana study at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts each year. We want to ensure that they can continue their training in the challenging months ahead. Please join us by making a gift today, on a special #GivingTuesday, at NOCCAInstitute.com. Your support has never been more important. In the 2020-21 school year, we expect that up to 60% of students will need financial help to continue or start their studies at NOCCA. NOCCA makes artists, artists make New Orleans, and you make NOCCA. --------------- Photo by Elizabeth McMillan of a dress rehearsal of Jasper in Deadland , a Musical Theatre student production that was cancelled in the shift to distance learning.
