I've been a visitor/member for more than 15 years. I'm enjoying my 3rd term as a board member. I have enjoyed the wide variety of art exhibits over the years. I love the way the museum brings science education to the community and to the schools. I know from experience with several non-profits that LASM's fiscal management is excellent.
LASM is not only a great place for family time, but for adult time too! The wine tasting events are fun and a great way to visit and see the new exhibits!
LASM is a wonderful place to see quality art exhibitions. I have especially enjoyed the current still life exhibition by contemporary Louisiana masters. Other exhibitions that were outstanding included Starry Messenger, Chuck Close, Howardena Pindell, Sam Gilliam, and Faith Ringold. My grandsons love to visit LASM's hands-on galleries. They come regularly and always have to spend time making their own creations. The First Sunday program that allows lower economic groups to visit the galleries at no charge and the just added Kids Saturday program that allows chidren 12 and under to visit LASM each Second Saturday of the month are both great ways to introduce LASM to new audiences. LASM is also a fabulous place for school and camp group visits. A steady stream of yellow buses drops off youngsters thoughout the year. The Baton Rouge community is indeed fortunate to have such a wonderful family orientated resource! and
