4. We tried yoga in the LSU Museum of Art galleries

What’s better than a relaxing yoga session surrounded by art? Lately, our team has been working to find even more one-of-a-kind experiences around Baton Rouge that offer the chance to see even more of what the city and the community have to offer. In this story, we went all in with the LSU Museum of Art’s newest program, which allows guests to enjoy exhibitions in a whole new way. Read the full story here.

2. Brains behind the bones: Meet the creators of ‘Claire Carter, Bone Detective’

Forensic anthropology meets Louisiana culture meets children’s books. Locals Mary Manhein and Leah Wood Jewett have joined forces to bring a new concept to the kids’ literature market. Drawing inspiration from her own background in science, Manhein writes the tales, while Jewett, exhibitions coordinator at the LSU Libraries, brings the words to life through illustration. We sat down with the pair to learn more about their publishing company, Os Liber Press, LLC, the future of the Claire Carter series, as well as what it’s like to work together.
