Lunchtime Lagniappe: The History of Frottoir

Capitol Park Museum 660 North 4th Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802

Use your lunch break wisely: for an engaging lecture at the Capitol Park Museum. Hear from Tee Don Landry about the history of a chance encounter between a Creole musician and Cajun metal craftsman to create the first Frottoir, strictly as a musical instrument. This story is one of musical invention, that remained a quiet, respectfully-held source of pride for the Landry family for more than fifty years. Noon; approximately 30 minutes plus Q&A. Attendees are welcome to bring a brown bag and come and go as the their lunch hour permits. Free. (225) 342-5428.
