Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

The Entergy IMAX features the wonders of nature captured in three stories of vivid, in your face, color. These movies, usually an hour long, complement the nature themes introduced by the Aquarium and other Audubon facilities. This IMAX is an entertaining and educational window into the natural world.

Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

Located in a Civil War era three-story Antebellum house, this museum has some of the most unique art work of that period. The collection is of interest since it showcases African-American works found in the heart of the Old Confederacy. It is also of interest because of its quarters in the 19th Century era mansion.
