Royal Street
For a full 13 blocks, Royal Street runs parallel to Bourbon Street, yet this thoroughfare – one of the finest stretches of art galleries, antique stores, wrought iron balconies, restaurants and architecture in the USA – is sometimes almost completely missed by visitors. This is a real shame; beyond the qualities we’ve just described, Royal Street makes a nice counterbalance to the neon and noise of Bourbon. http://www.frenchquarter.com/royal-street-a-block-by-block-guide/

Ahhh Ras Natango Gallery and Garden
The garden is all of that and so much more. Carved in the hillside are terraces for walking and viewing the varied plants. The tour of the garden is 45 minutes to one hour, but visitors generally stay after the guided tour and spend time just looking at the plants and listening to the birds. There are two fantasy gardens. A fairy’s village, between the roots of a huge tree we were forced to cut after Hurricane Ivan in 2003, is a teaching tool for student field trips. They use their imagination to write stories about life in the village. The other is a Dinosaur Era garden. This too is a teaching tool, used to teach about our impact on nature, make students aware about the endangered and extinct animals in Jamaica, and how the pet trade affects wildlife. The garden also has its very own King Tut’s Falls, leading to the Koi Pond. You may even hold our turtles . All paintings in the gallery are for sale. The medium is acrylic on canvas. Paintings reflect the vibrant colors of the island. One section is of Jamaica’s flora and fauna, birders will enjoy paintings of our endemic birds and plant life that have been presented in the gallery. https://ahhhrasnatango.com/

Leo, both the owner and artist, is a Nassau native who infuses his personal charm into the space, doubling it as his studio. This setup gives the gallery a welcoming, intimate feel.

Leo's artwork is a fascinating blend of exotic wildlife and religious themes. As he enthusiastically shares, each element in his paintings is rich with symbolism. Even at first glance, the pieces are captivating, bursting with color and complexity. If you visit, take a moment to chat with Leo; his stories about each painting add another layer of depth to his work. The gallery is not just a display of art but a window into Leo's world and the rich cultural heritage of the Bahamas.

Aspen Art Museum
The Aspen Art Museum is a non-collecting institution presenting the newest, most important evolutions in international contemporary art. Our innovative and timely exhibitions, education and public programs, immersive activities, and community happenings actively engage audiences in thought-provoking experiences of art, culture, and society. In 1976, a City of Aspen vote led to the acquisition and development of an out-of-use building at 590 North Mill Street that became the Aspen Art Museum’s first home until 2014. Built in 1888, the Hunter Creek Power Plant first served the city’s silver mining operations while also enabling Aspen to be the first city west of the Mississippi to have streetlights powered by hydroelectric energy. Supporting a recommendation that an art space would offer the most creative and adaptive community service, the City assisted efforts to rehabilitate the disused structure. By November 1977, the Aspen Center for the Visual Arts (ACVA) was incorporated within the state of Colorado, and in August 1978, the ACVA board selected its first director, Philip Yenawine. https://www.aspenartmuseum.org/about

The Getty Villa has four gardens that blend Roman architecture with open air spaces and Mediterranean plants. In ancient times, gardens served both practical and aesthetic purposes at Roman country homes. They let fresh air and light enter the home, and also acted as gathering places to have conversations or to escape the heat. https://www.getty.edu/visit/villa/

Akron Art Museum
Imagine stepping back in time to the early 1920s, where the local art scene was fueled solely by passionate volunteers. This was the reality until 1924, when city support finally allowed for a professional director to take the helm. However, the financial hardships of the Great Depression soon hit, cutting off city funding and leaving the institute to once again depend on the dedication of volunteers from 1931 to 1945. During this era, the institute operated in borrowed spaces, serving as an art hub that offered classes and showcased the work of local artists. The collection was a delightful mix, featuring archaeological artifacts alongside both decorative and fine art, all donated by generous patrons. In 1937, the institute found a permanent home in a historic mansion. But fate dealt a harsh blow just four years later when a devastating fire ravaged the building and much of its treasured collection. This calamity threatened the very existence of the institute. Fast forward a quarter of a century and the museum has emerged as a cultural beacon, enriching lives in Northeast Ohio and beyond with its modern and contemporary art offerings. Its collection has gained national recognition, meticulously documented in published catalogues. Three acquisition endowments were established to ensure the collection continues to grow, and a substantially increased general endowment has provided more stable funding. This financial security has empowered the museum's staff to launch ambitious programs and exhibitions that resonate on a national, and even international, level. In 2007, as the museum celebrated its eighty-fifth anniversary, it underwent a remarkable transformation. The opening of the new John S. and James L. Knight Building more than tripled the museum's size. This modern structure adjoins the 1899 building, and together, they span three centuries, much like the museum’s collection. This blend of old and new captures the museum's dual mission: to preserve the past while championing the future. If you visit, don't miss the chance to explore the museum's galleries, which house an intriguing mix of works from regional artists and internationally acclaimed creators. The museum's architecture itself is a masterpiece, a perfect backdrop for the art it holds. Whether you're an art aficionado or just curious, this museum offers a rich experience that connects the past with the present in a truly inspiring way.
