Art In Context Program
A non-profit corporation established to provide opportunities for artists, artisans and those who seek to learn.
Frederick l'Ecole des Arts is supported in part by grants from the Louisiana Division of the Arts, Office of Cultural Development, Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council as administered by the Acadiana Arts Council.
The Art in Context Program is unique in that it utilizes existing businesses as venues for Frederick sponsored programs and events currently in a tri-town, bi-parish area.
The current list of cultural partner member businesses includes:
Casa Azul host Literary Stage in Grand Coteau
Town Market Rural Arts Centre/NuNu’s host Frederick Stage & Deux Bayous Gallery Collective in Arnaudville
Russell’s Food Center in Arnaudville
Steeple Vue Gallery in Arnaudville
Partner businesses must first become members of Frederick l’Ecole des Arts and understand the importance of supporting the Arts and its ultimate impact on Louisiana’s cultural economy. Second, businesses must host at least 1 Frederick sponsored event monthly. Third, partner business must develop 1 program unique to perspective businesses specialty area. Fourth, partner business must host one fundraiser annually benefiting Frederick l'Eole des Arts as a whole.
The Art in Context Program promotes the development of infrastructure of programs and amenities that enhance appeal of smaller communities (and businesses) as destinations for residential and tourism purposes and mirrors the mission of Frederick l'Ecole as a whole by providing extensive opportunities for artists, artisans and those who seek to learn.
Future plans include expanding the program.
