The Garden District Civic Association currently offers advertising space in our newsletter, the Garden District News, but not on our website. The newsletter is hand-delivered to at least 820 homes in one of Baton Rouge’s most healthy real-estate markets with a diversified but generally upscale demographic. The Garden District News is published four times a year, and typically comes out in March, June, September and December.

All ads are black and white and there is a 15% additional cost for us to put the ad together for you. There is a 5% discount for repeating your ad a second time and a 10% discount for repeating it the whole year.
All advertising must be paid in full in advance for the entire run of the ad.
