You won't want to miss the much anticipated twenty-fifth Friends of Magnolia Mound Petite Antiques Forum, beginning this year at the Louisiana State Archives with a lecture by Laura Barry, the Juli Grainger Curator of Paintings, Drawings, and Sculpture at Colonial Williamsburg. Colonial Williamsburg will celebrate its ninetieth anniversary of its Abby Aldrich Rockefeller folk art collection in 2025, which features portraits, weathervanes, theorem paintings and figural trade signs; it is the first folk art museum to be established in America. Barry will share pieces from the collection with the audience. Attendees will then lunch at the Baton Rouge Country Club before touring Bonnie Glen, a privately owned historic home in Pointe Coupee. $175. (225)-421-3162.
