Discover. Engage. Influence.
Established in 1981, LMF serves as the heartbeat behind all Louisiana State Museums. Through funding support we fuel the collections, drive the exhibitions, and power up the educational programs.
LMF is the force that keeps the past alive — preserving, presenting, and promoting Louisiana’s vibrant history and culture — making sure it’s not just history, but a living, breathing part of today. Because it’s not just about what happened then; it’s about what’s happening now, and what’s yet to come.
Let’s make history together.
