Took a class last weekend: Create Your Own Geode! with Rhonda Kiser…read more I'm a crafty person, as in I'm not an artist. I know my way around the glue gun and a Silhouette machine but not a palette of watercolors or charcoal pencils. This was the perfect class! I got to create something without any real preconceived idea of how it "had" to look and for me, that was refreshing! Rhonda was informative and patient in explaining why were doing things a certain way and she left the artistic part up to me. She covered all the different materials she commonly uses. I appreciated all the recommendations and useful info on the materials. I feel confident I could create another geode all in my own now. Truly a relaxing process and a great self-care experience. Going to try to make it a girls night next time!

While on the hunt for a thoughtful and unique gift, preferably from a local store, I remembered The…read moreFoyer is usually a place where you can find a little something for everyone. I was immediately greeted and welcomed into the store, even though there were several people being assisted. There are several local vendors selling items in The Foyer, and each area has a different theme or flavor. The local artists on display are phenomenal. You can find something in all price ranges and styles as well. I found some special pieces for my mom and a gift for a student at LSU. I can't wait to go back after the holidays and shop for my house! The store is clean and easy to get around in. While sometimes the popular stalls may get a little cramped, everyone is respecting distance. Also, the numerous times I was offered assistance was great. I even saw one employee search through several ornaments to help one patron find an obscure item she thought might be there. Lucky for her, it was! I didn't get to go to the cafe this time (Heather V's), but i guarantee I will be back for some delicious sandwich or salad very soon!

Wowwwww, I was captivated by this place...mesmerized, actually! I walked in to find myself in a…read morewonderland of the most uniquely presented art pieces...anything from antiques to eclectic furniture can be found here. I was originally here to meet some friends at Heather V's Cafe (located in the back of the gallery), just wish I had more time to shop! It was lovely to see that within the gallery there were individual "boutiques" sectioned off, which I thought added more character to the place! You could literally go into one "boutique" and find everything you needed to decorate your home or a section of your home with. I look forward to my next visit, when I can browse longer and shop for some home items or fun gifts!

The smaller indoor room has 22 ft glass walls and leads to a large "rooftop" style terrace overlooking the Mississippi River and downtown Baton Rouge. Throw in a sunset and you have one GORGEOUS setting for any event!

This small gallery is perfect for a one artist show. The space is well lit and designed…read more Artist, Julie Crews, who resides in the Monroe area was featured when we visited. Her oils on cradled board featured landscapes, roadscapes and still lifes of tootsie pops, origami, flowers and goodwill clothing shops. Her style is accessible and accomplished. Her paintings leave you wanting more. I almost imagined today upon entering that I could smell the oil paint drying! How delicious to smell an art gallery exhibit.

The LSU Museum of Art was a really pleasant surprise…read more I honestly wasn't expecting much going in, but it ended up exceeding my expectations. There's a lot more here than you'd think, with a solid variety of exhibits that make it worth spending some time exploring. It's also very inexpensive, which makes it an easy add to your itinerary. Even better, students get in for free, which is a huge plus. I believe they also offer free admission on certain days (though I'm not exactly sure when), which makes it even more accessible. Overall, a great, low-key museum that's definitely worth checking out - especially if you're already in the area. A hidden gem in Baton Rouge.

The student worker at the desk was very helpful. There is lots to do and see within the Shaw Center and surrounding downtown Baton Rouge. The gift shop below was also wonderful and not too expensive. The displays were well thought out and had lots of sitting areas throughout for observations or breaks. They offer first Sundays of the month for free with some kind of free engaging event to go along.

This one hurts my heart to write but my experience was so awful it needs to be written…read more I love the pink elephant, i am a frequent shopper here. But i will sadly never be back. I had something in my hand, and put it back bc there was no way i was giving my money to someone who was rude to me. I asked the owners to unlock a cabinet for me, & so they ask where. Well the store is huge so i'm like oh in the back, this way & i pointed. One of them says "in the back, in the corner?" & because it was in the BACK, CORNER ROOM, i say yes i think so. Lady grabbing the keys, extremely nice. Other one, not so much. Nice lady follows me with keys, has wrong one no biggie, still extremely nice about it. Other owner comes over as the other one is grabbing the correct keys and says "Did she get it?" I say "oh! she had the wrong keys she's going grab them" kindly. She decides to say to me "Well this isn't the back corner. That's why she had the wrong keys." I say okay.... She says "that's on YOU" rudely and points at me. Yeah. Sadly i can't come back. I did nothing wrong & was treated terribly. Amazing store, but she majorly needs to work on her customer service. My 4 friends & I were very baffled.
