ABOUT THE MUSEUM
The People of Hope Museum is a one-of-a-kind, tractor-trailer-sized museum. It shares professionally produced, first-person stories from Catholic Charities staff and volunteers across the country, highlighting meaningful encounters with individuals and families in need.
Visitors can also explore interactive poverty-simulation experiences; U.S. and state-level poverty data visualizations; recordings of book excerpts about poverty, social isolation, bridgebuilding and community action; and a recording booth where they can share their own stories of hope.
This free, immersive experience will be hosted by Catholic Charities of North Louisiana from October 7-8. We hope you’ll join us for this meaningful and uplifting experience.
The People of Hope Museum is FREE to the public.
It features:
State-level poverty data visualizations will give visitors a greater understanding of poverty in Louisiana and across the United States.
An interactive poverty simulation experience to gain a deeper understanding of how poverty impacts the lives of people across the country and right here in North Louisiana.
Stories from Catholic Charities volunteers and staff across the country.
