Ogden Museum of Southern Art, Art museum in Warehouse Arts District, New Orleans, United States
The Ogden Museum of Southern Art spans two connected buildings, featuring a five-story glass structure and the historical Patrick F. Taylor Library from 1889.
The museum originated from Roger H. Ogden's collection of 600 artworks, leading to its establishment in 2003 as a center for Southern art preservation.
The permanent collection contains over 4,000 artworks from fifteen Southern states, including works by John Alexander, Walter Anderson, and Clementine Hunter.
The museum welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering guided tours, exhibitions, and educational programs throughout the week.
In December 2023, Roger Ogden provided a $20 million donation, generating annual support of $1 million for museum operations.
