Description

Four time grammy nominee Ann Savoy is revered as a central figure in Cajun music and culture, but that is far from the whole picture. She is a chanteuse of old jazz standards, has written award winning books, produced albums with rock stars, recorded an album of duets with rock legend Linda Ronstadt, appeared in movies, and toured all over the world playing music. Her upcoming album on Smithsonian Folkways is an eclectic mix of originals, British folk rock, and “hippie folk music”. Thursday night she will do a little of all of the above with a host of special friends joining in.

Acadiana Center for the Arts

Our mission is fostering art and culture in Acadiana.

Founded in 1975, Acadiana Center for the Arts (“AcA”) is a community-supported nonprofit organization that fosters art and culture in Acadiana. Since its founding, AcA has developed as a major force, shaping the future of public education and community development in South Louisiana.

AcA supports the creation of new works of art, exhibits, festivals, performances, and public art across an eight-parish region that includes Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, and Vermilion Parishes.  

AcA aims to bring equitable access to the arts and supports fair compensation of artists. On average, AcA serves over 300,000 people annually and provides fair compensation to 2,700 artists.  

In 2013, the AcA merged with the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana (“PASA”), whose mission was to educate, inspire, entertain, and culturally enrich the people of south Louisiana by providing local access to a diverse range of the performing arts. This merger supported the vision of both organizations and provided much-needed support to PASA’s programs. Founded in 1989, PASA served as a leading voice in the performing arts in South Louisiana for close to three decades.
