Join us as we celebrate a time when most food was locally sourced, and cities survived off the fields and farms that surrounded them.
Enjoy contemporary Louisiana BBQ from Baton Rouge’s own celebrity chef, Jay Ducote who will broadcast The Jay Ducote Show live from the museum prior to the event. Of course, great food and good company always go best with live entertainment. Join us for food, fun, and a little slice of Louisiana history! |
