64 Parishes Summer 2024 Magazine
64 Parishesā mission is to tell Louisiana stories. The stateās landscape is diverse, its people even more so, and every corner of Louisiana has a history, a culture, and a tale. 64 Parishes strives to celebrate, document, and champion the people of our complicated, storied state through the publication of engaging and reliable content from across Louisianaās sixty-four parishes.
64 ParishesĀ is a project of the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities (LEH), a nonprofit that has partnered with communities, institutions, and individuals since 1971 to explore Louisianaās past, reflect on our present, and imagine our future. LEH began publishing a quarterly magazine,Ā Louisiana Cultural Vistas, in 1990. In 2008 LEH launchedĀ KnowLA, the online encyclopedia of Louisiana.Ā 64 ParishesĀ represents the evolution of this work, combining the encyclopedia and magazine under one title and continuing to produce engaging, well-researched information all about Louisiana.
