Art On The Levee

Never let it be said that Pyrates don’t appreciate culture – fact is, we brought much of it here to begin with!

The Folk Art Zone & Blues Museum in Old Algiers (operated by local folk artist Charles Gillam) will be open and offering tours on Family Pyrate Day from Noon – 3pm. It’s about a 5 minute stroll from our Pyrate District.
