We held our second community conversation yesterday afternoon.
The Center for Louisiana Studies hosted a musical House Party at Avery Island during spring of 2016
Fri, 05/20/2016 - 8:20amThe intimate house concert with renowned local musicians David Greely (founding fiddler of Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys; currently performing as a solo artist, and with the GreelySavoyDuo and GumboJet) and Blake Miller (founding member of Pine Leaf Boys, current member of the Revelers and Lafayette Rhythm Devils). Musical selections included a wide representation of holdings in the Center's Archives of Cajun and Creole Folklore (ACCF), as well as pieces from Greely's solo career and fellowship at Shadows-on-the-Teche. All proceeds from this event were used to further the preservation mission of the ACCF.
