Three local artists came together to contribute to the design and encapsulate this year s theme. This year it s been really interesting to see the collaboration unfold between a weaver, a painter, and a potter, and to see what they came up with, said Carly Viator, marketing coordinator for Festival International. Our theme this year is unity and diversity and they totally nailed it.

The Office of Juvenile Justice (OJJ) will resume in person visitation at its four secure care facilities for males.
The OJJ says that visitation will resume on Saturday, March 20, 2021.
Following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Louisiana Department of Health (LDH), OJJ says that revised practices will be in place to allow for social distancing and safety standards in line with Louisianaâs Phase 3 Covid-19 guidelines.
Visitation will be different than it was prior to the pandemic, they say. All families must preschedule a 45-minute time slot for visiting with youth. Extended visitation hours will be held on Saturdays and Sundays between 10:00am and 4:00pm.
Acadiana jumps at the chance to engage in art indoors
After almost a year without it because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Louisiana is once again allowed to have live music indoors.
Gov. John Bel Edwards announced on March 2 that Phase 3 of reopening the state will enable more indoor events, as gatherings were increased to 50% capacity or up to 250 people.
With the announcement, the arts community in Acadiana was quick to act upon the new allowance and start jamming under a roof again.
Here s a look at some of the things that are making their return as things ease back to normal.
