Alice Moseley Folk Art and Antique Museum

The Alice Moseley Folk Art and Antique Museum sits on the second floor of the Bay St. Louis Railroad Depot and displays paintings, vintage bottles, vases, and antique objects. The rooms hold a mix of artworks and historical items that together create a collection reflecting different aspects of daily life.

The museum was founded to preserve the artworks of a local artist and was first housed in a private residence. It moved to the restored railroad station building in 2013, where it continues to operate today.

The collection shows paintings created by Alice Moseley, who started her artistic journey at 60 years old while observing the everyday life around her in the South. Her works reflect personal observations and the world she saw daily in her community.

The museum is open weekdays and Saturdays with free admission, making it easy for visitors to explore at their own pace. Staff members are available to answer questions and guide you through the collection if you wish.

The paintings carry titles like 'Life Is So Daily' and 'The House Is Blue But the Old Lady Ain't' that offer humorous and honest takes on everyday living. This direct and somewhat cheeky approach to naming the works makes them feel personal and relatable to visitors.
