The Louisiana State Museum: http://lsm.crt.state.la.us/lsm.htm The Louisiana State Museum is a complex of national landmark Museums housing thousands of artifacts and works of art reflecting Louisiana's legacy of historic events and cultural diversity. The Museum operates five historic properties in the New Orleans French Quarter: the Cabildo, the Presbytere, the 1850 House, the Old U.S. Mint and Madame John's Legacy. It also owns the historic Lower Pontalba Apartments on Jackson Square, with its many grand residences and retail establishments. The Louisiana State Museum also maintains the Wedell-Williams Memorial Aviation Museum in Patterson, Louisiana, the Old Courthouse Museum in Natchitoches, Louisiana, and the E.D. White Historic Site in Thibodaux, Louisiana. New Orleans City Park: http://www.neworleanscitypark.com/ New Orleans City Park is the fifth largest urban park in the nation, encompassing 1,500 acres. Approximately 14 million visitors come through the Park each year to enjoy its magnificent oak trees, picturesque statues and fountains, numerous sports and recreational facilities, and many historic buildings. The area, once a swampy, oak-filled forest, was home to Indians who traded by dug-out canoes along the banks of Bayou St. John. City Park offers visitors both fine arts and natural splendor, as the home of the New Orleans Museum of Art and the largest collection of mature live oaks in the world. The park's bridges, buildings and outdoor sculptures are a constant source of delight to visitors. The Louisiana Museum Foundation: http://lsm.crt.state.la.us/lsm.htm A private, non-profit supporting organization, and one fundraising arm of the Louisiana State Museum system, dedicated to the continued growth, enhancement, acquisitions, and endowment of the Louisiana State Museum. Krewe of Bacchus: http://www.kreweofbacchus.org/ The Krewe of Bacchus parade was founded in 1968 by a handful of New Orleans business leaders whose dream was to revitalize Carnival. The Krewe of Bacchus broke with Carnival tradition by staging a Sunday night parade designed to be the highlight of the Carnival season, with floats bigger and more spectacular than anything previously seen in Carnival. Furthermore, Bacchus decided to have a national celebrity king lead its parade, breaking ranks with 113 years of Carnival tradition. Now, Bacchus is revered as one of the most innovative, influential, and spectacular Mardi Gras parades in Carnival history, with more than 950 members and 28 animated super-floats.
