Through the Blue Star Museums Program, sponsored by Special Risk Insurance DBA VFIS of Miss/Lou, the Louisiana Art & Science Museum will offer free admission year-round to military veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and their families. The program itself is supported across American museums through partnerships with the National Endowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families, the Department of Defense, and various other partners. With over 20,000 veterans living in East Baton Rouge Parish, this is an amazing opportunity for many to peruse exhibits and see what else the Museum has to offer. lasm.org
