  • Rush Seating Demo with Michael Gatz, owner of Denicola’s Furniture in Baton Rouge, from 2–4 p.m. A rush seat or cane seat is a woven seat made from dried natural materials such as vegetation or fibers such as twisted paper. It is created by weaving or ‘caning’ these materials. Join us for a demo of this process with Denicola's, a local design-focused and sustainable furniture restoration business known for its traditional craftmanship and upholstery services.
