Description

Join us for this special Women's History Month programming at the Acadian Cultural Center in Lafayette.

From 6 pm to 6:45 pm, enjoy a free live music performance from two-time Grammy nominated artist, Jane Vidrine, and her husband John Vidrine.

A screening of the documentary "Intention" will start at 7 pm, with a Q&A panel session immediately following. Intention follows the stories of eleven women who encompass the profound gradient of cultural heritage in Southwest Louisiana. Contextualizing language, music, food, art, and traditional faith healing, these Cajun, Creole, and Chitimacha preservationists inspire pursuits of passion in practice that give light to an untold cultural narrative.
