Petite Antiques Forum

All right, all you antiquarians, this one’s for you. To begin the annual Petite Antiques Forum, guests will meet at the Louisiana State Archives building, where President of the Board of Trustees of the Historic BK House and Gardens in New Orleans R. Larry Schmidt will present a lecture titled, “If these Walls Could Talk—A Small Museum with Many Stories”, highlighting the history, restoration, and ongoing stewardship of the French Quarter’s BK House. Guests will continue with lunch at the Baton Rouge Country Club after the presentation, and then will have the option to tour two private historic homes in New Roads, Louisiana—including the 200-year-old LeJeune House and its 1905-built neighboring structure. Tickets are $125 which includes lunch and both home tours. Registration and refreshments at the Louisiana State Archives building begins at 9:30 am. Register (which is required) or purchase tickets at friendsofmagnoliamound.org.
