On 1 August 2014, the Norton opened a four-year exhibition, Art of the Great War. Throughout the exhibition you'll see original posters and learn about life in the city of Shreveport and in Caddo and Bossier Parishes during the conflict, including the men from here who gave their lives in the trenches of France.

The R. W. Norton Art Gallery proudly welcomes international art sensation Ashley Longshore to Shreveport. Ms. Longshore combines bold colors, gold leaf, and rhinestones to create works of art that are truly one of a kind. The Norton is excited to have Ashley debut in Shreveport to share with us her distinctive and spirited perspective on the world.
