  • Blast from the Past 2020: Made in Louisiana Five Days of Fun Activities to Do at Home
    Blast from the Past 2020: Made in Louisiana Five Days of Fun Activities to Do at Home Handcrafted: Art Made in Louisiana Prehistoric Art: Artifacts from Poverty Point and the Medora Site Native Americans inhabited the area we now know as West Baton Rouge Parish since pre-history. Many different tribes occupied area either as roaming tribes or in villages. One site dating from 1200-1400, known at the Medora Site, was located on the southern end of West Baton Rouge parish. The Medora Site was quite complex/sophisticated and consisted of 2 pyramid shaped mounds separated by a large plaza. Archaeologists uncovered lots of pieces of pottery, some stone tools and arrow points. The pottery found at these sites showed a lot of artistry; decorated inside and out. Pieces found were possibly used as jars. The decorations were carved into the unfired clay with sticks, shells or points. Then the clay was fired to harden it for use as a household item. Another important site was in North Louisiana now known as Poverty Point. This site dates to between 1650 and 700 B.C. It consists of ~900 acres of earthworks—mostly platform mounds and ridges. Poverty Point is now a National Monument and a UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization) World Heritage site. In the style of the native peoples who walked this land before us, let’s sink our hands into some clay to make and decorate vessels. Make a Clay Pinch Pot Supplies: Clay or Play-Dough Tools such as small sticks or shells for carving Directions 1.

DOUGLAS G. HURLEY, USMC, RET. E ‘88 Colonel Douglas G. Hurley, USMC, Ret., is a NASA astronaut, test pilot and fighter pilot with a distinguished military career that spans almost 25 years. Hurley chose to attend Tulane University because of the storied reputation of the engineering program, but found the cultural experience of New Orleans and the discipline of the Navy ROTC program just as important in his eventual career as an astronaut. Hurley had always been interested in flight and space, and his father suggested he study engineering at Tulane. The Marine option of the Navy ROTC program provided the necessary scholarship support that allowed him to pursue his degree. He worked closely with Professor Robert Bruce, himself a Tulane alumnus (E ’51, ’53), who served as a mentor and inspiration. When he graduated magna cum laude with a BSE in civil engineering in 1988, he also he received his commission as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps. A few short years later he became a “Viking” with Marine All Weather Fight/Attack Squadron 225, where he was an F/A-18 fighter pilot.

  • Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Impact
    HISTORIC REHABILITATION TAX CREDIT IMPACT BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA JANUARY 2017 DAVIS RHORER, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 247 FLORIDA STREET BATON ROUGE, LA 70801 [email protected] (225) 389-5520 02Table - 03 of HISTORIC Contents CREDIT IMPACT 05 - 12 CATALYTIC PROJECTS 03 - 16 POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT 1 Historic Credit Impact The Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits have transformed Baton Rouge’s city center and returned several properties back to commerce, creating an economically vibrant downtown. Since the implementation of the credit, local developers have capitalized on the opportunity to renovate historical buildings that had previously been financially infeasible projects, derelict properties that had fallen from their historical glory days due to years of neglect and city center decline. Over 80 properties in Baton Rouge have utilized the federal tax credits, several of which required substantial reconstruction costs and would have otherwise been demolished. Since the Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits began, several renovations to historic properties have catalyzed the magnitude of development seen in Baton Rouge today. The Heidelberg Hotel, a Downtown Baton Rouge building renovated in 2006 utilizing the historic rehabilitation tax credit, is an example of a historic renovation project that spurred surrounding growth in the city center. The Heidelberg, a national historic place registered in 1982, was a project that exemplified the tax’s financial ability to restore historical, vacant structures and return them to economically viable community components. Due to the tax credit, Downtown Baton Rouge has experienced a renaissance of restoration of its large commercial structures into multi-use buildings accommodating both commercial and residential activity, as well as its single family structures comprising the historic neighborhoods of Beauregard Town and Spanish Town.

  • Saturday, Nov. 2 9 Am - 4 Pm About the Artwork
    Artwork by Rob Guillory; Colors by Taylor Wells SATURDAY, NOV. 2 9 AM - 4 PM ABOUT THE ARTWORK The artwork for the 16 th Louisiana Book Festival was created by Lafayette native Rob Guillory. It shows the familiar Exhibitors’ Row leading to the Louisiana State Capitol. Guillory said of his artwork, “I’m picturing the pink [heart] balloons as sort of a visual representation of the authors’/readers’ love of books/inspiration/creativity. One of my favorite things about these types of events is getting to talk with others about our mutual love of literature and the exchange of ideas.” Guillory is the artist behind The New York Times bestselling comic book Chew and the winner of the comic industry’s most prestigious award, the Eisner. He describes his path to success as trying at times, but, in a world that craves authenticity and diversity, remaining true to himself has proven key. When asked to create this image, Guillory “was immensely honored to be offered this project.” The spirit of the Louisiana Book Festival lies in celebrating stories from all sorts of people, bonding over our commonalities, and learning from our differences – all things that are beautifully illustrated in this year’s artwork.
