"Juke Joint Men" Book Signing
West Baton Rouge Museum 845 North Jefferson Avenue, Port Allen, Louisiana 70767
For this month's after hours event, the West Baton Rouge Museum is hosting a book signing for the museum's recent publication, Juke Joint Men, which presents the biographies of lesser-known bluesmen who have played a part in advancing the genre. The West Baton Rouge Museum Director of Interpretation Kathe Hambrick narrates these stories, which are backed by five years of research conducted by the entire curatorial staff. Each story is accompanied by the striking collages of J.K. Lawson. Both Hambrick and Lawson will be available to sign copies from 4 pm–7 pm in the Brick Gallery. Music, provided by Ace DuBois, will begin at 5:30 pm. Free. westbatonrougemuseum.com.
