Open Hearth Candle Making Demonstration
Lighting your own way, with handmade candles.
Audubon State Historic Site 11788 Highway 965, Saint Francisville, Louisiana 70775
Turning on the lights at night wasn't always as easy as flicking a switch. This hands-on demonstration by Louisiana State Parks illuminates the painstaking process of making molded beeswax candles over the open fire, as the enslaved people of Oakley Plantation once had to do by hand. 1 pm–4 pm at Audubon State Historical site. (225) 635-3739 or crt.state.la.us.
