Joseph Bartholomew Golf Course
publicJoseph Bartholomew Golf Course in New Orleans East holds a place of profound historical and cultural significance as one of the first public golf courses designed by a Black architect in the American South. Named for Joseph Bartholomew, a Black man who ironically designed and built many of New Orleans finest courses but was prohibited by Jim Crow laws from playing on them, the course stands as a powerful symbol of civil rights progress. Today it offers accessible public golf to the New Orleans East community, providing affordable recreation in an area that continues to rebuild from Hurricane Katrina. The 18-hole layout features flat Louisiana terrain with water hazards and mature trees. The course serves an important community function, hosting junior programs and events that introduce young New Orleans residents to golf. Conditions have been inconsistent post-Katrina, but ongoing community advocacy supports continued investment in this historically significant facility.
Joseph Bartholomew was a remarkable figure who designed and maintained several of New Orleans most prestigious golf courses in the early 20th century, yet was prevented by racial segregation from ever playing on them. The course bearing his name was eventually created to honor his contributions and provide Black New Orleans golfers with their own public facility. Today it stands as a monument to his legacy and to the broader civil rights struggle in Louisiana golf.
