The Alexandria Museum of Art invites the public to a truly unique Renegade Tour celebrating Louisiana history on Thursday, May 29, 6-8pm, at the Museum. 

Dustin Fuqua is from the Cane River Creole National Historical Park in Natchitoches Parish and member of the Sassafras Society working to preserve the gumbo file tradition. Fuqua will give a presentation on the historical importance of rivers in the area. Participants will be guided through a study of antique maps as well as an opportunity to learn about bousillage, a building method utilizing clay and Spanish moss unique to Louisiana. All against the backdrop of our current exhibition on view: The River is the Road: Paintings by George Rodrigue.
