Admission is $3 cash, but she let me go through, go get cash, come back and pay. This space is dedicated to how the area started, who the initial residents were, the hunting, fishing and wildlife that helped to contribute to the way of life here. The lady working was wonderful and kind. There was so much to look at! Come if your in the area. Look around.

I joined the yearly membership so my sons and grandchildren can come back all year long. I inquired about the person who put this Military Museum together. I also ask if he would be in this day. They told me, "maybe". He did show for a few minutes to take pictures and a meet & greet. What a wealth of knowledge he had! I hope they keep this museum open forever. If you're in Houma, put this on the top of your list of place to see and experience. You won't regret it. The ladies at the front desk were wonderful, helpful and very knowledgeable about the museum. I will be forever grateful for those who continue to work & volunteer their time.

The other exhibits various tools used in making all of the buildings and structures to bring this area into existence. The placards described everything.

Located along the banks of Bayou Petit Caillou that's dotted with shrimp boats and fish camps, these brightly painted sculptures mark an era that's filled with mystery especially the sudden disappearance of the creator - I'm really surprised the artist never capitalize on his years of work. It's a free exhibit in a very small park like setting. The highlight for me is definitely the "lighthouse" which looks more like a chimney once you walk inside the small opening and look up. If you're in the area or even if you need to drive a little out of your way it's worth paying this site a visit, it's free, strange and pretty cool...

There are many of the areas, or sections, of the sculpture garden that are intertwined. I'm not clear about the connection of each, or the story of how one might or might not relate to the next. I suspect the relationship of the various sculptures to one another is part of the mystery and intrigue of this artist and his whimsical yet life like and most colorful artwork. This is a pleasing place, cozy and comfortable. Located along the bayou with the water - and an occasional shrimp boat - easing by as if no one even noticed this art oasis. That's probably because many pass by on water or on the highway without noticing. For those who who do notice, and do stop, this will be a worthwhile and unique experience.
