First Free Sunday at Capitol Park Museum: Abandoned Baton Rouge

During the First Free Sunday event, stop by for a book signing and meet & greet with Colleen Kane, author of Abandoned Baton Rouge. Captured in photos before they were gone are Baton Rouge institutions like The Bellemont Motor Hotel, and the ordinary building on Oklahoma Street that helped to make LSU athletics extraordinary. More than 130 images show how these places looked when they were new, not-so-new, abandoned, and on their way out of existence. 1 pm–4:30 pm. louisianastatemuseum.org.
