Acadiana Center for the Arts

This is a wonderful venue to enjoy live music. Ghost Note band was incredible. We drove in from Alabama to see them. The staff was helpful and kind. Great seats!

10-8-23 Really interesting artwork was on display... and this is a cool venue for comedy shows. This was my first time going to the Art Center, and I was impressed with the metal work that was on display.

I loved Acadiana Center for the Arts! Because the tickets to the theater are separate! I love the art galleries at the museum lot better than the theater!

I’ve been to the ACA about 100 times- all good experiences! Their seating setup makes sense and is comfortable and their technology has always worked (which is hard to come by😂).

Beautiful facility, centrally located in downtown Lafayette, LA. Easy to find reasonably priced parking within a short distance of this venue. Other businesses are close by for dinner, dancing, etc.

My daughter loves walking around the exhibits and taking part in the kid friendly activities ACA offers. Friendly staff even greet you at the door!

During the art walks, the place feels vibrant and lively! Lovely exhibitions featuring local artists

Great organization in a great building! I have been to a few different events here and I must say the versatility of the black box theatre is wonderful! Great architecture! The staff has always been very friendly and helpful to me, and the variety of shows here surely has something of interest for every taste.

This is a beautiful museum that also doubles as a concert venue. The rotating art installations that I've seen there are absolutely stunning. I really appreciate the emphasis on local artists. They do a wonderful job of curating experiences, and giving you a glimpse of the artist. I saw a great concert recently produced by local Cajun and Zydeco musicians I was absolutely blown away by those ladies! Later that month, I went to see some art by the renowned Leroy Evans. It was a stunning display of color, depth, detail, and emotion. Possibly one of my favorite painting exhibits ever. Take your kids, take a date or take a friend - you will have a lovely time.

Every second Saturday in downtown Lafayette there's an art walk. Vendors set up shop up and down the streets and in shops. I went recently and now this will be a regular Saturday night thing for me. It was so nice!! Acadiana Center for the Arts was offering free admission so I stopped in to escape the heat and check out the exhibits. Jeremy Young was the artist whose work stood out the most to me and I thoroughly enjoyed studying his paintings. I was just awed by the details that went into his paintings. The artists here change on a regular basis and I picked up the upcoming schedule so I'll know when to go see some new exhibits. Next time you're wandering around downtown Lafayette be sure to stop in here!

Stumbled upon this jewel while walking around downtown Lafayette. $3 for students to check out art? You can't beat that! The staff was knowledgable and friendly...All any patron can ask for.
