Know any teachers in the Baton Rouge area? The museum is now encouraging schools to book their trips well before classes for the fall begin.

Print Donation Program |
|
|
|
Since 2009, over 500 organizations have raised over $1 million for their non-profit organizations through the GRFA Print Donation program. GRFA will allow the purchase of a signed Rodrigue Blue Dog silkscreen print of your choice for $500.
As part of this unique program, if the print does not provide the organization with funds exceeding the original $500 investment, then GRFA will accept the print's return and refund the $500.
