The Sunny Side Jazz Brunch
Acadiana Center for the Arts presents The Sunny Side Jazz Brunch, a benefit for the arts in Acadiana at the home of Kip and Carolyn Schumacher on Sunday, April 12, 2026. Celebrate the spring in your seersuckers, spring dresses and festive hats for this art-filled brunch on the lawn.
The Sunny Side Jazz Brunch calls to the experiences of legendary Creole Jazz brunches at Commander’s Palace and Brennan’s and features a performance of classic New Orleans tunes from the Preservation Hall All Stars.
All funds raised from the Sunny Side Jazz Brunch will support the AcA’s performing arts programs, offering national acts of music, dance, and theater in Lafayette, as well as the expansion of AcA’s Arts in Education work into new schools and parishes around the rural regions of Acadiana.
