Uniquely Louisiana

Where else in the United States but Louisiana does the natural environment have such a dramatic influence on its heritage and culture? Acclaimed for its rich cultural traditions and zesty cuisine, Louisiana’s melting pot of peculiar plant, water and animal life serves up a wondrous and remarkable natural gumbo. From the alligators of bayous and swamps to expansive fields and vibrant river lands with majestic egrets, Louisiana’s astonishingly diverse habitats and wildlife have inspired visual artists for centuries. Uniquely Louisiana celebrates Louisiana’s 200th anniversary at the LSU Museum of Art from August 11 to November 11. lsumoa.com
