ARTIST ROUND UP | Grammy Panel & Mixer

How well do you know the categories that are eligible for consideration for the Grammy’s? Artist Round Up is an opportunity for creatives of all disciplines to come together in a space to meet like-minded creatives who they could collaborate with, talk to, find inspiration from and just generally hang out with. For our November meet up, AcA’s Performing Arts Director, Brandon Motz, will lead a discussion with past and new Grammy nominees about how and what they got nominated for, career trajectories and what it was like to go to the Grammy’s! Panelists include: Eric Adcock, Kelly Bixby, Cynthia Simien, Louis Michot and 2025 nominee Sean Ardoin! This is a free event hosted by AcA’s Creative Acadiana workshop series.

Her gathering and use of repurposed materials is mainly motivated by her regard for our natural environment and her respect for our Earth. ...
