Gallier Hall
With almost 170 years of history, you will find Gallier Hall full of renovated antique furnishings, moldings, and historically accurate lighting in the form of gorgeous and elaborate chandeliers. You will also find a modern venue that meets the needs of today; a living, breathing part of New Orleans culture that is still called upon to host current events such as Mardi Gras, weddings, funerals, conferences and much more.

Building on two years of AI programming, this year’s summit expands the experience through hands-on workshops, demonstrations, career resources, entrepreneurship programming and immersive activations in the heart of downtown New Orleans. The goal is to help underrepresented communities move beyond simply hearing about AI, to understand how they can use it to build skills, create opportunities, strengthen
businesses, and preserve culture.
“Black Tech NOLA is where technology, art and culture meet opportunity,” said Sabrina Short, Founder & CEO of NOLAvate Black. “We want people to leave with more than just inspiration. We want students to see a pathway, job seekers to make meaningful connections, creators to experiment with new tools, founders to move an idea forward and our community to have a voice in how AI shapes our future.”
