About the event

Coton Jaune - Brown Cotton: A fascinating history and trending tradition
It's a story with everything from trousseaux to true crime! You won't want to miss Elaine Larcade Bourque's presentation on August 16 in the AV room.
Discover an Acadian legacy that clothed generations and continues today as a Louisiana-made craft.
Afterwards, sample some traditional Creole cuisine on the back porch, then enjoy a picnic in the shade or dine local so you can catch our 2 pm house dance in the Acadian cabin!
Admission fees are waived for the day in observance of National Acadian Day, la Fête Nationale de l'Acadie!
Acadian celebrations in St. Martinville start the day before on Friday, August 15, with a tintamarre (noisy procession of Acadian pride) on Main St. and a party at the Acadian Memorial following the Fête Dieu du Teche. https://www.facebook.com/share/1BytTof7f6/
