Description

AcA's Artist Roundups gather together artists and creatives for a casual night of making connections while also making art. By bringing artists of various backgrounds together, Artist Roundups hope to encourage dialogue and collaboration across artistic disciplines and create a shared sense of community and belonging.

This month, join co-owners of Scrappie Studio, Preslie Such and Raeleigh Boyd, for a hands-on gelli printing session where participants can experiment with monoprinting techniques and create their own layered prints. All materials will be provided but attendees are encouraged to bring their own objects to experiment with: leaves, household objects, string, ribbon, anything with an interesting shape or texture. Get creative!

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.
