Rivertown’s Only Venue With An Overnight Option!
The Clancy House History
The Clancy House is a unique 2 bedroom 2 bath home that was built in 1922 by the longest termed sheriff of Jefferson Parish, Sheriff Frank James Clancy. It was constructed as his personal home on his 1000 acre cattle ranch, where he milled cypress trees from the ranch to erect the modest house. Clancy was a colorful character with said ties to the American Mafia, organized crime and gambling. But he was also a very giving man, having one of the first food pantries for those in need, right next to the house.
The house was a family home and Sheriff Clancy’s office for many years, seeing several generations enjoy the home. In 1975 the house was donated to the City of Kenner and in 1984 was opened to the public after it was converted into the Kenner Historical Museum. After Hurricane Katrina, the museum closed and the house sat unused for years.
In 2016, Andrée Dupépé, great-granddaughter of Sheriff Clancy, approached the City of Kenner about the house, and with the approval of the other heirs to take the house back, began to renovate the deteriorating structure. Since then the existing 2-story garage has been converted into an apartment and the main house is once again a home!
About The Clancy House
The main house is eclectically decorated with a mix of antiques and modern furnishings making it fun, funky and functional! And with over 1900 square feet of space, it is the perfect place for gatherings of 50 guests or less for a luncheon, team building meetings, baby or bridal showers and even an intimate cocktail party. With 2 designated bedrooms and sofa sleepers, the house can sleep up to 8 and is plenty of space for your bridal party to get ready. Large windows throughout the house give an abundance of natural light for hair and make-up application and there are several spaces that will make the perfect backdrop for pictures inside and out. With a full kitchen in the heart of the house, there is plenty of space to chill your champagne in the fridge and even prepare a small meal, although we do recommend having your event catered.
There is side and backyard area available that would be just perfect for an intimate wedding ceremony or additional space for entertaining during your event!
Located in Kenner’s Rivertown, this historic home is just a few steps across the street from Rivertown park, the Mississippi River Levee, LaSalle’s Landing, Rivertown Theatre and it’s just a Second Line away from The Crossing!
So let The Clancy House be a part of your special day!
