The professional staff and talented artists at the West Baton Rouge Museum know how restless and distracted kids can sometimes be. That's why they constantly work hard to create exhibits that not only involve your children, but the experiences are often interactive and on-going. Exhibits like Cathartic Art elicits emotions, the expressions of which are highly encouraged. Another great example of a kid-pleasing exhibit is "S is for Sugar" that incorporates learning about letters, farming and sugar. That, along with all the other educational and constantly-updated exhibits make the West Baton Rouge Museum a great family attraction that offers a completely sweet experience.
