Me and my daughters just chose to stop here on our way back to Texas. I am so glad we did, the art was absolutely amazing. I myself am an artisy and the messages through the art was very profound.

Beautiful and moving exhibit. Powerful works that cut right to the core of your soul. It is impossible to go here and not feel strong emotions. Wear light clothes. It is in a warehouse that is not air conditioned. Not too bad but the heat might be a concern for some. Bring water and use the hand fans they give you. Do not leave town until you see this. It's that good.

This is a must-visit exhibition in New Orleans. One of the best I've seen anywhere. It's clear that the artist has a strong and complex understanding of the Black American experience and the imagery is stunning. Definitely visit and support his exhibition.

"Art is in the eye of the beholder" but I was genuinely moved by the larger than life displays. I was fortunate enough to visit while there was a live panel discussion that included first hand accounts of events that took place in New Orleans that may not be found in any textbook or library, it was truly an experience that I'm having a hard time describing in a way that does it justice.I visited on a weekday and there was no fee for admission but I made a donation using the QR code posted next to the door as you exited the exhibit.Your visit to New Orleans won't be complete if Studio Be isn't on your sightseeing itinerary.

Studio Be is one of the most AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL art studios I’ve ever been to!! The artwork…OMG… BMike is definitely a force in the art world!! So much so that I’ve had one of his pieces added to my body art!!!! I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Brandan in person, and he is an incredibly kind and humble human being. His work in our community has been impactful and inspiring. If you are in NOLA, this is a MUST do!!

Beautiful work! Been a fan from a distance, so when I had a trip planned for New Orleans, this stop was NECESSARY.**Be aware that the studio is in a warehouse, so it's not climate controlled. It was a 100° day outside, so we definitely moved through a little faster and left a bit sooner than we would have on a more moderate weather day.

I had heard of BMike through some Youtube videos on street art and wanted to check out his place. I had no idea that my visit would last over two hours, or that I would be so moved. Studio Be is an absolute gem, and should definitely be on your itinerary. BMike and his staff are doing good things... go give them some love.

Studio Be was wonderful!! The art there was a tremendous view into the world of the artist and his growth in the city of New Orleans and beyond. His accomplishments and influence has been nothing short of amazing. This visit was very rewarding, and I recommend everyone to visit if you are in New Orleans. This was one of many stops on the cultural city tour.

Please make this a stop on your trip through New Orleans. Five years ago I stood outside this warehouse taking in all of the murals on its exterior not knowing the beauty that lied within. I love seeing the pieces put to get by BMike and even got to see an artist bringing a new piece to life.

This place did not disappoint. The art highlighted at this studio is so vibrant and powerful. It's worth a visit. The area around the studio is filled with street art...all of which is powerful and empowering to marginalized voices.

Beautiful immersive art gallery nestled in the quiet area of the city. Vibrant colors perfect for instagram pictures. I would recommend taking your time to enjoy the artist work and not just taking pictures of the floor to ceiling art installations!
