As a valued supporter of past Louisiana Steampunk Festivals and the World Steampunk Exposition & Makers' Fair, we want to extend a special invitation for you to be part of an exciting new chapter for our community. Over the past year we have established a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, public charity with the hope of creating a special, permanent home for these types of events.
We are thrilled to announce the creation of Les Deux Bayou STEAM Park—a permanent, immersive venue located in Arnaudville, Louisiana, where the World Steampunk Exposition & Makers' Fair will have its forever home on property with three existing, historic structures. This unique space will blend history, creativity, and innovation, offering a Victorian-inspired steampunk aesthetic with an emphasis on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) education.
As part of this program we have been awarded in-kind support from EPA and have received a grant from the Atchafalaya National Heritage Area for site planning, But we need your help to make this vision a reality!
No donation is too small, and every bit of support you can provide will bring us closer to creating this remarkable experience—a destination that fosters creativity, education, and celebration for steampunk enthusiasts, makers, and families alike. Your contributions will go toward site development, historic preservation, and creating spaces for workshops, markets, and exhibitions that highlight the best of our steampunk community.
Please visit GiveButter.com/Tlj3un to contribute today and help us build a lasting home for the incredible World Steampunk Exposition & Makers' Fair.
Thank you for your continued support and for being a part of our journey!
Warm regards,
Chad LaComb
Founder, Les Deux Bayou STEAM Park
