During the summer of 2013 I had the pleasure of photographing the building that Tulane City Center constructed for New Orleans’ Guardians Institute. Guardians is a nonprofit dedicated to the development of youth through literacy, physical fitness and New Orleans’ indigenous cultural arts.
The building consists of two main spaces: an exterior stage for performances, especially by Mardi Gras Indians, and the interior workroom. That door you see is large enough for fully dressed Indians to walk through.
