6 Days Until Lafayette Aioli Dinner
The Aioli Dinner Supper Club will be in Lafayette on Thursday to share a delicious four-course menu prepared by Chef Greg Doucet of Jolie’s Louisiana Bistro. This unique dining experience will celebrate George Rodrigue’s iconic “Aioli Dinner” painting and raise funds for our statewide arts in education initiative, Louisiana A+ Schools.
For ten years, artist George Rodrigue honored the University of Louisiana at Lafayette with portraits of its distinguished guest speakers in the Flora Levy Lecture Series. This fall the university honors Rodrigue with the special lecture, “George Rodrigue: Painting to the Frame,” presented by William Andrews, Executive Director of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art.
National Arts in Education Week is coming to a close, but we’ve had lots of fun celebrating the creative work of our 16 Louisiana A+ Schools on Twitter. Follow us at @RodrigueFdn and @APlusLA to see wonderful examples of how the arts enrich the classroom.
