Yes, I come up with some weird titles…\u00a0 I was thinking of earth, wind, fire, and water since the Fire and Water Festival is coming up, and as you can see by the name, it is sans earth and wind.\u00a0 Okay, enough rambling.\u00a0 The Fire and Water Festival is a 3-day event to be held in Arnaudville, LA.\u00a0 Yes, this may sound familiar to you since I taught a class in- say it with me- Arnaudville- just a couple of months ago.\u00a0 Arnaudville has quite the arts community going on thanks to George Marks.\u00a0 (I’m sure there are others involved, but unfortunately I don’t know everyone behind the scenes, so much appreciation goes to those folks as well.)\u00a0 Anyway, George is an artist as well, and\u00a0 asked me to participate.\u00a0 I was excited to be asked since\u00a0it was looking\u00a0like there would not be a big group exhibit this year, but turns out there will be one afterall.\u00a0\u00a0Yea!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

And yes,\u00a0I will be in attendance on Saturday, December 13th.\u00a0 The show will be up as of\u00a0Friday\u00a0the 12th for the start of the festival and will end the following Sunday.\u00a0 So despite all the holiday parties, get-togethers, etc., I will be there (and my artwork, of course).\u00a0 If you need to get rid of some holiday stress (And you know it exists, don’t pretend it doesn’t.\u00a0 It’s okay to admit you’re not always holly and\u00a0jolly.), then come to Arnaudville to enjoy great art and great company.\u00a0 Never a dull moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Oh, and I should also give you the actual name of the event.\u00a0 Many people\u00a0know\u00a0it as\u00a0“Le Feu et l’Eau Rural Arts Celebration,” but for those of us who are not Cajun (i.e. me), it’s perfectly fine to call it the Fire and Water Festival.\u00a0 Here’s a list of some of the participating artists: Kelly Guidry, Hope Hebert, Julie Breaux, Lue Svendson, Jill Hackney, Scott Finch, Damond, Lisa DiStefano, George Marks, Amy Guidry, Vincent Darby, JD Schall, Gerilyn LaVergne, Rene & Iggy Landry, Alvin “Pem” Broussard, Hogie Siebert, Daryl Harwood, William Lewis, Florine Robin, Brian Thibodeaux, Michelle Fontenot, Michel Hudelot, Gerald Judice,Lori Henderson, Missy Maloney,\u00a0Scott DiStefano, Noonsie Morrough, Bryan LaFaye, Michel Brault, Pierre Perrault, Mario Doucette, Matt Doucet, Jay Miller, Eric Breaux, Pat Mire, Dicky Landry,Jillian Johnson, Megan Barra, Lucius Fontenot, Philip Gould, Francis X Pavy, Elemore Morgan, Jr., Kent Hustler, Toby Rodriguez, Zachary Richard, Guy Arsenault, Andre’-Alan Phelps, Sylvain Cousineau, Francis Coutellier, Paul E.
