Alice Moseley Museum

Alice Moseley is the Grandma Moses of the southern coast. Like Grandma Moses her paintings are primitive in style and feature scenes depicting the  everyday life of the people where she lived.  She began painting at 65 and created 100s of paintings over the next 26 years. She died on July 2004, at the age of 94. 

The museum is housed in the historic Bay St. Louis Train Depot. The first floor has a few displays on local history plus some colorful Mardi Gras costumes. The second floor is dedicated to Alice Moseley's paintings and a gift shop with prints of the paintings.

The museum is accessible. An elevator provides access to the second floor. 

Shorter RVs will fit in the parking lots. Long RVs can be parked on the street.  Museum  30.30833, -89.33432
