ACADIAN YOUTH CALL FOR ART

Franco Fine Arts Exchange is looking for artists

of Acadian descent ages 7-11

to submit an original work of art

to be considered for our group exhibition

during Festival International de Louisiane

at Cité des Arts in downtown Lafayette, Louisiana.

Our 2026 theme is

Through the Acadian Looking Glass

inspired by a Cajun Créole Alice in Wonderland

play written by Poet Laureate of French Louisiana,

Kirby Jambon.

We want to see anything fantastical!

What do you imagine when you think of

a looking glass?

What does your imaginary world look like?

Who lives there?

Maybe you look back in time?

Your imagination is your ticket into this show!

Your nonrefundable $10 donation/entry fee

will benefit our nonprofit efforts

to gather and promote Acadian artists around the globe.

Deadline to enter is January 22, 2026.

The winner will be announced February 2, 2026!

PLEASE PHOTOGRAPH ART IN ADEQUATE LIGHT - MERCI!
