NEW ORLEANS ATHLETIC CLUB

NOAC was founded in 1872, making it the third-oldest athletic club in the United States.  It is located in the Tango Belt, an entertainment district in the upper French Quarter that had the densest collection of jazz clubs in the city in the 1920s.   The venues showcased black entertainers like Ethel Waters and Josephine Baker.   

 

A speaker will tell us about the history of the building and the club and then take us on a tour of the facility.  There will be a cash bar available and lite bites will be provided.  

 

We are looking into parking options and will let you know soon.
