Barn Demonstration Day and Dance

Tinkering, hammering, spinning, churning, sparks flying—brace yourself for Barn Demonstration Day at the West Baton Rouge Museum. Guests will mosey down to the barn to witness rural ingenuity in action. From noon until 1 pm take in a talk from New Orleans Master Crafts Guild Director John Hawkins. From 1 pm–5 pm, explore demonstrations and discussions on farm tools, woodworking, blacksmithing, weaving, and even see an original Model A car. The finale is a lively old fashioned barn dance with the Cane Grinders from 5 pm–7 pm. Noon–7 pm. Free. westbatonrougemuseum.com.
