Connecting Acadiana is an opportunity for Acadiana based artists and arts & cultural organizations to meet local, regional, state and national funders. Individual artists and arts & cultural organizations can expect to learn about funding and other programmatic opportunities available to them and how to approach and access these opportunities. Confirmed attendees include: AcA - Gwen Richard (Community Development Director), Anna Kojevnikov (Community Development Manager) Basin Arts - Clare Cook (Executive Director) Louisiana Division of the Arts - Erica Anderson (Director of Grants Programs) Atchafalaya National Heritage Area - Caroline Byrne (Assistant Director) With more to be announced soon. This is a hybrid session. We hope to see you in person at Acadiana Center for the Arts for this session but should this not be possible, zoom details will be provided once payment has been processed. This session will also be recorded and sent to each participant following the workshop.
