Louisiana Through Wild Eyes

Louisiana Through Wild Eyes is coming to Port Allen!

Join photographer Dave McNamara and watercolor artist Katherine Klimitas at the West Baton Rouge Museum for the final 2026 stop of Louisiana Through Wild Eyes, a collaborative traveling exhibit celebrating the incredible wildlife of Louisiana.

The exhibit pairs Dave’s wildlife photography with Katherine’s watercolor interpretations of the same subjects, giving viewers two distinct perspectives of each animal and moment. From herons and pelicans to spoonbills, alligators and more, the show explores the beauty, personality and diversity of the wildlife that makes Louisiana so special.

Two artists. Two perspectives. One wild story.
