New Orleans, a city of artists and culture, dis- plays the work of its talented citizens in any available space in the French Quarter. New Orleans Serves Country As Gateway To Ttie Americas A city of varied flags and influences, of the old world and the new, of French and Spanish and English . . . New Orleans, a metropolis, a cosmopolitan city, a living example of Amei ' ica ' s melting pot . . . The various groups and countries, at first, developed their own distinct and separate communities, never crossing any boundary to join with any other group. Yet with the passage of time and the growth of un- derstanding, the boundary line dissolved and the many became one . . . Today the entire community as a whole, as one, shares in the benefits of the docks, of Michoud, of one city hall, of one libraiy, of me French Quarter. Striving, working, creating together, the in- habitants of varied areas and customs contributed to a city, a rich, a vast, a beautiful heritage able to be enjoyed by all. Such a city, such accomplishments, such a culture are developed only with understand- ing and cooperation as brothers in a world of differences. Bourbon Street of mid-afternoon differs significantly from Bourbon Street of mid-night. The daylight hours barely suggest the night-life that comes alive at twilight. 13
