How To Give

NOW, IT’S YOUR TURN.

The Let Culture Lead initiative provides many opportunities to meet your financial needs and to fit your desired impact on the community.

Community philanthropy will help realize AcA’s Vision 2030 and will further solidify Acadiana as a thriving and inspiring community for people from all walks of life. Your support will inspire others to participate in building a dynamic cultural life where everyone can feel that they belong.

100% of your gift will be invested back into the community to advance the cause of arts and culture in Acadiana by placing the arts at the center of community development efforts.

My father and I are both enthusiastic supporters of the AcA in its mission to foster art and culture in Acadiana. Through its wide range of programs, exhibitions, and performances, the AcA is a hub for creativity and artistic expression that captures the essence and spirit of Acadiana.

We are proud to support an organization that actively promotes diversity and equity in the arts. The AcA continually seeks to bridge the gaps that have historically marginalized BIPOC artists by fostering an environment of understanding, respect, and collaboration. Their dedication to promoting cultural awareness and inclusivity aligns closely with our values, and we stand alongside them in this important endeavor.

Furthermore, the AcA plays a crucial role in education and outreach programs, ensuring that our youth are exposed to various forms of art and that young artists have access to resources and mentorship opportunities. By investing in the next generation of creatives, AcA paves the way for a brighter and more inclusive future for the arts within our community.
