Why Your Support Matters
Your gift to the LSU Rural Life Museum allows schoolchildren, LSU students and faculty, and the Baton Rouge community access to the unique historic collection through tours, experiential learning, interactive demonstrations, and unique research opportunities.
The mission of the LSU Rural Life Museum is to provide and sustain a publicly accessible center for the collection, preservation, and interpretation of the material culture, cultural landscapes, and the vernacular architecture of the Louisiana and Lower Mississippi River Valley. The museum focuses on the life ways of the working classes of the 18th and 19th centuries. The museum also provides educational and research resources that advance an understanding of the material and cultural heritage of the regions.
This LSU Giving Day, your gift will strengthen the winning teams that drive the LSU Rural Life Museum to do what it does best: empower Tigers to lead, learn, and make a difference. Thank you for your support!
