Friends, join us on Saturday, November 19, at 6pm for our monthly member’s meeting. We’ll have a light supper plus German beer and wine as well as pretzels.
Guest speaker Jerry E. Strahan will talk about Andrew Higgins and the landing craft Higgins built in New Orleans for World War II. Strahan is the author of Andrew Higgins and the Boats That Won World War II. Dinner will be from Gattuso’s Restaurant, and toast your friends with German beer and wine!
Step inside the GACC Museum and go back in time to 1721, when German immigrants first settled in Louisiana. You’ll learn about the waves of German pioneers that followed them to establish homes, farms and businesses across the river from New Orleans. Entry is free of charge to our museum, open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday.
Honoring the German immigrants who founded Gretna, Louisiana, in 1836 and their contribution to Louisiana’s history is the mission of the German-American Cultural Center & Museum.
