Les Mains Guidées: Re-usable Beeswax Wraps

Vermilionville

Bayou Vermilion District and Vermilionville hosts a monthly workshop series that allows you to learn crafts from our master artisans. At the beginning of each month we highlight a different craft from the old Acadian, Creole, and Native American ways of life.  Even if you'd simply like to come and watch the class as an observer only, not taking a direct part in the workshop, we've got a spot for you! During April's Les Main’s Guidées, as part of the Bayou Vermilion District's Earth MONTH celebration, we'll have one of Vermilionville's favorite artists come and teach how to make re-usable beeswax wraps, which are a great resource in reducing single-use plastic waste! Mimi R. DelGizzi recently moved to Lafayette, LA to be closer to family and explore her Acadian heritage. Previously, she lived in Boston, Massachusetts where she received dual masters degrees in Food Policy as well as Public Health with a focus on community nutrition.  Mimi teaches courses on healthy eating, fermentation, beer and wine brewing, yogurt- and cheese-making, and has led workshops in wellness, meditation, and mindfulness. As always, we are glad to have her expertise at Vermilionville. This class is limited to ten participants. Cost is $25 per person to […]

Les Vues Free Film Series: My Louisiana Love

Vermilionville

Join us for the Bayou Vermilion District and Vermilionville's free cultural film series, Les Vues, held on the last Monday of each month. Les Vues is curated by filmmakers and enthusiasts, statewide. Films range from features to documentaries focusing on various aspects of culture. Following the screenings, a curator conducts an open discussion with the audience. This month's featured film is, My Louisiana Love, curated by director Monique Verdin.  My Louisiana Love first began when Monique Verdin (Houma) and her boyfriend, Mark Krasnoff, started recording Monique’s Native American relatives in southeast Louisiana. Hoping to capture the Houma Indian’s struggle to live in bayou communities plagued with environmental injustice, they filmed eroding wetlands and interviewed Native elders. Their documentation quickly shifted after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, leaving Mark and Monique facing their own personal struggles in the aftermath’s apocalyptic reality—only to be followed by more devastation to the Gulf Coast with Hurricane Rita and the BP oil leak.
