Discovery Day at the Capitol Park Museum - Plantation Country

Come join us for a day of hands-on educational activities exploring Louisiana's natural environment and naturalists. Learn about the mighty Mississippi River, the people who sketched Louisiana's flora and fauna, and methods of growing and preparing food!

Did you know Louisiana has more than 470 different bird species? And because of our state’s location on the Gulf Coast, we attract tourists, bird watchers, and local outdoors people who want to witness the spring and fall migrations of warblers, buntings, grosbeaks, flycatchers, thrushes, and other species who rest in our lush marshes and forests during their long migrations. Join us this month as we celebrate the birds of our state by creating a songbird using colored pencils and mixed media.
