OUR STORY
The Foyer has been a fixture in Baton Rouge's art community since it opened on Perkins Road. What started as a marketplace for local artists and craftspeople has grown into 8,000 square feet of original art, handcrafted furniture, curated gifts, and inspired living.
Every piece on the floor came from someone who made it. Every merchant here chose to be here. That is what makes The Foyer different from anywhere else you can shop in this city.

Meet Claire Gowdy, a lifelong native of South Louisiana, she creates expressive abstract paintings inspired by the marshy landscapes, waterways, and industrial beauty of the region. Working primarily in acrylics, she incorporates pastel, spray paint, charcoal, texture, and whatever tools help bring the piece to life—including her hands.
Claire's work is an ongoing exploration of color, form, texture, and imagination, with palettes ranging from bold and vibrant to soft and subtle. She approaches each canvas—and life—with curiosity and a sense of adventure.
Claire hopes her work brings a little joy, peace, and whimsy to those who view or collect it. Art is therapy for her, and sharing it is part of that journey.
This collection features prints of my work, making the art more accessible while maintaining a high-quality product printed in the USA.
Lots of great gifts and artwork, staff are fabulous and the cafe serves great food.
