Poydras Center Pop-Up Art Exhibit: David Breidenbach and Clay Coleman

New Roads' Julien Poydras Museum and Art Center continues to highlight local art and artists with a series of special Pop-Up Art Exhibits, funded by a grant from the Atchafalaya National Heritage Area.

January's Pop-Up features the work of David Breidenbach and Clay Coleman, photographer friends whose work shares a focus on nature and travel. From New Roads, Breidenbach has captured remarkable photos in over seventy countries—often in remote locations—and has made a special name for himself for his talents in underwater photography. Coleman, from Baton Rouge, has worked as a photojournalist for many years, his work appearing in publications such as Scuba Diver and The Louisiana Conservationist. He is the author of The Certified Diver's Handbook, a beloved resource for the scuba community worldwide. 

 A meet-the-artists reception will be held January 5 at 6 pm. Free. pointecoupeehistoricalsociety.com.
