In support of Longue Vue House and Garden's mission of lifelong learning we are searching for qualified translators to help us reach across language barriers to share the unique history of Longue Vue. Our tour materials need to be translated and updated in as many languages as possible.
This may be done virtually or on-site at Longue Vue. This is a fanatastic opportunity to learn about The Stern family, their contributions to New Orleans as well as architectual design and garden history.
