Upcoming Education Community Events in the New Orleans Area

Bug Ambassadors serve as the link between the animals that we house at Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium and the thousands of guests that visit our facility each year. Bug Ambassadors interpret live animal exhibits, engage visitors in learning, and assist staff with live animal presentations.

Bug Ambassadors must be 16 years of age or older, complete the training course, and commit to one weekly shift for one year. A contribution of $30.00 helps cover costs of training materials and uniforms.

Session includes 11-week comprehensive French classes as well as 5-week specialized classes such as conversation, literature, phonetics, news & discussion, and more. This session we are introducing Accelerated Classes -- a fast track to complete a full level in just 5.5 weeks.

Hotel Maison de Ville has been receiving reports of paranormal activity almost as long as it has been operation. Thanks to a full-scale investigation by the Ghosts of Louisiana Paranormal Society we now have official evidence to back those claims. While none of the paranormal anomalies seem to be malicious there is certainly a "spooky" factor to the recent findings. Audio recorders, left in unoccupied rooms, picked up at least 6 different voices. Perhaps the most startling audio evidence came from a room on the second floor of the slave quarters that is reported to have survived the Great New Orleans Fire of 1788. A woman's voice in that recording whispered "burning... catch me". Amongst the orbs, shadows and voices in our rooms lies your, personal ghost-hunt expedition.

This is not just another New Orleans ghost tour! It is an interactive exploration of the paranormal at the site of abundantly reported paranormal activity. Space is limited so sign up now.
