BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – The Louisiana Art and Science Museum is celebrating Christmas with a special event called “Coca-Cola Christmas: A Month of Magic.”
The special event is a museum-wide celebration in downtown Baton Rouge and runs through January 5, 2025.
There is a winter wonderland on display throughout museum, including a 20-foot Coca-Cola bear, a Santa’s workshop, a North Pole Post Office, and more.
In addition to the displays, the Irene, W. Pennington Planetarium at the museum is also offering holiday-themed shows. “Let it Snow” features holiday music classics and scenery. “The Star of Bethlehem” takes you back thousands of years to investigate the star that guided the Wise Men.
The Louisiana Art and Science Museum has partnered with Coca-Cola for several years for the “A Very Merry Museum” event. However, the two organizations wanted to expand what they offered to the public in 2024.
“The rich history between Coca-Cola and Christmas goes back to the 1940s,” stated Biedenharn. “From the iconic Santa Claus to the recent polar bear, we bring cheer to the holidays. Now, we are happy to bring some of that cheer to the Louisiana Art & Science Museum, and hope it brings many memories to you and your family.”
