Miniature Art: Its Origin and Techniques
A lecture by Babeth Shlegel of the Louisiana Craftsmen's Guild
Magnolia Mound Plantation 2161 Nicholson Drive, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802
A transplant from France to Baton Rouge, Babeth Shlegel is the Collections Manager at Magnolia Mound Plantation. When not working at Magnolia Mound, however, she expresses her more artistic side: making jewelery with glass beads, metalworking, and enameling. A member of the Louisiana Craftsmen's Guild, Babeth will lead a lecture at Magnolia Mound this afternoon, outlining the history of the enamel medium in France and England, and highlight the two miniature enamel knobs on display in the home. 2 pm at 2161 Nicholson Drive. Free. (225) 343-4955.
