"A Tale of Two Museums"

This week, we visit the Contemporary Arts Center for live music with Tab Benoit’s Swampland Jam.  We also stop by the New Orleans Museum of Art as they celebrate their 100th birthday.  And finally, Eve Abrams stops by the studio to talk about “Preservation Hall at 50,” an exhibit at the New Orleans Mint.
