Not all transformative projects involve construction cranes and
infrastructure. The Alice Moseley Folk Art Museum recently
relocated to a new home in Downtown Bay St. Louis, providing
expanded visibility for one of Mississippi’s most beloved artists.
The move strengthens the city’s reputation as a destination
for arts and culture while ensuring Moseley’s legacy remains
accessible to future generations.
Located at 105 South Toulme St. in the heart of Old Town, the
museum houses more than 100 original works by the nationally
acclaimed folk artist. The new location places the collection
within one of the Coast’s most walkable cultural districts, making
it easier for residents and visitors to experience Moseley’s
distinctive paintings and storytelling style while exploring Bay
St. Louis’ galleries, shops, and restaurants.
Several additional projects are helping shape the future of
Coastal Mississippi. New residential developments planned in
Biloxi will bring hundreds of homes to the area, helping address
housing demand as communities continue to grow. At Tradition,
William Carey University continues investing in campus
growth and educational opportunities, supporting economic
development in one of the Coast’s fastest-growing areas.
Meanwhile, improvements planned for the Mississippi Coast
Coliseum & Convention Center, including parking and
infrastructure enhancements, are designed to support future
tourism, conventions, and special events.
The venue hosts concerts, sporting events, and community
gatherings. Southern Miss and Ole Miss have played basketball
there in recent years.
Together, these projects highlight the ways South Mississippi
continues to invest in its future. From technology and tourism to
housing, education, the arts, and infrastructure, communities
across the Coast are pursuing projects designed to support growth
while enhancing quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
