The André Cailloux AR Tour

We’ve got a story to tell. 

And we’re telling it here, on Bayou Road, starting September 18.

The André Cailloux Center is launching an immersive AR tour this fall—a bold, time-limited experience that brings Black history to life through cutting-edge technology, live performance, and community-rooted storytelling. Developed in partnership with Black Realities, the tour leads attendees through historically significant spaces on Bayou Road with trained guides and cast members while accessing compelling AR visuals and soundscapes. 

The experience culminates in a powerful one-man theatrical performance, bringing Cailloux’s presence into the present moment. This is immersive storytelling where art, technology, and live performance converge.

THE PARTNERSHIP: DEVELOPED WITH BLACK REALITIES

This tour exists because of Black Realities — a collective of Black creatives reimagining how we tell stories, use technology, and honor legacy through immersive cultural work.

Black Realities brings a storytelling vision that centers Black brilliance, Black innovation, and Black power. They understand that technology can be a tool for reclamation — not extraction. That AR can animate history. That performance can create space for remembrance.

WHY THIS STORY. WHY THIS MOMENT.

Captain Cailloux’s story is one of freedom fighting, strategic leadership, and sacrifice. He organized the first Black regiment to fight in combat for the Union Army. He gave his life for liberation. His legacy has been erased from American history books. We’re reclaiming it.

Bayou Road is New Orleans’ oldest road—a historic corridor of Black cultural and commercial life. This is where Black power has been built and preserved. This is where Cailloux belonged. This is where his story needs to be told.

The AR Tour honors his legacy while anchoring present-day efforts to revitalize and reclaim Bayou Road. It’s not just about the past. It’s about reclaiming what belongs to us, right now, in this place.
