If you want a unique, local, non tourist trap, this is the place to go.  Great collection of New Orlean's history.

A beautiful collection of Mardi Gras Indian costumes.

For those wanting to abandon the silliness of Bourbon St and actually learn about New Orleans culture.  $10 donation asked for and gladly paid.  Highly recommended!!!

A neat little museum! Well worth the $10. Have a walk around Treme after.

Before you go to this place, read up on black Mardi Gras. This is not a traditional museum. It is three rooms in a guy's house and costs $10 a head in cash. You will only understand what you are seeing if you have some background in the history of the Mardi Gras krewes and how they traditionally excluded blacks, and some idea of the traditions of the Mardi Gras Indians (who are not American Indians, but are African American).
