GRFA Visits Louisiana A+ Schools in New Orleans and Baton Rouge
The George Rodrigue Foundation of the Arts and Executive Director Jacques Rodrigue visited two Louisiana A + Schools this week to read George Rodrigue’s beloved children’s books to students and share an ornament-making project inspired by the many colors of Rodrigue’s Blue Dog series. Thank you to the students and teachers of Homer A. Plessy Community School in New Orleans and The Durfrocq School in Baton Rouge for welcoming us into your classrooms!

On December 18th at 5:00 PM, our 2015 Raffle will close and winners will be drawn for fantastic prizes, including a set of five signed and framed silkscreen prints by George Rodrigue. Funds raised through the raffle directly support our arts in education programs, which include an annual Scholarship Art Contest, George’s Art Closet, and Louisiana A+ Schools.
