2026 French Quarter Festival Poster

French Quarter Festivals, Inc. is proud to have Anne Lipscomb as the official 2026 French Quarter Fest poster artist. A multidisciplinary artist working in digital illustration, watercolor, and pencil, Lipscomb’s work lives at the intersection of storytelling, place, and contemporary design.

The 2026 commemorative poster is best described as New Orleans Modern Art Nouveau, drawing inspiration from classic art nouveau forms and movement, filtered through a distinctly local lens. Bold, rhythmic, and celebratory, the design reflects the energy, diversity, and spirit of the festival and the city it calls home.

“After growing up visiting New Orleans, I’ve now called the city home for over a decade,” said Lipscomb. “I’m drawn to the way it lives and breathes in its own distinct rhythm. My work for the 2026 French Quarter Festival celebrates the people, movement, and moments that make this city special.”

The poster design is also featured on a commemorative festival shirt. Bring home a piece of the 2026 French Quarter Festival.
