Overview
We have brought back our Waters of Katrina History Tour where we offer a unique insight into the untold history of water and its relationship to New Orleans.
With a concentration on Katrina, this journey will take you through past and present, exploring the natural and man-made disasters that created a need for new and improved ways to deal with our city below sea level.
Water has shaped the culture of this city. Every generation of New Orleanians have been plagued by floods.
