The Art Guild of Louisiana’s ’70th Anniversary Exhibit,’ featuring work by its founding members, runs through June 30 in the exhibition gallery at the Louisiana State Archives, 3851 Essen Lane.
The arts are bountiful in Baton Rouge, even during the summer, when other things seem to slow down after the school year ends.
This means there are plenty of things to see and do this week artwise in the city.
