Taste of Louisiana Welcome Reception – LSU Center for River Studies at the Water Campus
Tuesday, October 14, 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Please RSVP when registering online for the conference.
The LSU Center for River Studies conducts research on the world’s major rivers with a specific focus on America’s Mississippi River. Located at the Baton Rouge Water Campus near the banks of the mighty Mississippi, LSU CRS houses one of the world's largest movable bed physical models—about the size of two basketball courts! In the CRS exhibition area, guests will enjoy a selection of traditional Louisiana hors d'oeuvres, one (1) complimentary beer, wine, or soft drink (with your drink ticket) and cash bar available for additional drinks. In addition to LSU CRS tours and treats, reception guests can visit across the street and on the riverside of the levee, the LSU Coastal Ecosystem Design Studio and the old municipal dock. These venues deliver picture perfect views of the river at sunset. A shuttle service will transport guests between the two locations.
Please note transportation to and from the LSU Center for River Studies is the responsibility of the participants. Ride share services (Uber and Lyft) can be used. Parking is also available adjacent to the center on Arches Street or in the parking lot on Water Street.
