The Great Catch: An Exploration of Hunting and Fishing

Past Exhibit
August 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017
 
Hunting, fishing, and cooking are Louisiana traditions. The Noel Collection’s exhibit -- The Great Catch -- presented a historic overview from around the world and across the ages.  Our materials showed tips for hunting or fishing trips with friends. For those who love to cook, we displayed many recipes, including some from the 18th century.
