Venue Description

The Degas House is an extraordinary venue that blends timeless elegance with artistic charm. As the only home or studio of French Impressionist Master Edgar Degas, this beautifully restored 1853 Creole mansion offers a setting as inspiring as the artist’s work itself, making it ideal for any special occasion.

Stepping into Degas House is like entering a masterpiece. The walls, painted in hues of Parisian Gold, Desiree’s Deep Red, and Impressionist Rose, are adorned with framed reproductions of Degas’s iconic works, including family portraits, equestrian scenes, and his renowned ballet dancers. The mansion features two ornate Victorian parlors with antique furnishings and a baby grand piano, creating an atmosphere of refined sophistication.

For outdoor celebrations, the French Quarter-style courtyard, complete with a fountain and charming event setup, provides a picturesque space illuminated by natural light reflecting through the mansion’s large windows. With versatile function rooms, a gallery, and a breakfast room, Degas House offers just the right amount of space for intimate gatherings, vibrant receptions, corporate events, and everything in between.

Beyond its stunning spaces, Degas House is also a bed-and-breakfast, perfect for hosting out-of-town guests or extending your celebration into a weekend getaway. Off-street parking for up to 90 vehicles and on-site security ensure convenience and peace of mind for you and your attendees.

Whether you’re hosting a milestone celebration, a corporate meeting, or a memorable reunion, Degas House delivers impeccable service, artistic ambiance, and a unique connection to history, making your event unforgettable.
