Mardi Gras Mask Making  Workshop
Time: 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Vermilionville is continuing to host monthly workshops that will allow you to learn crafts from our master artisans. On the first Saturday of every month (unless noted otherwise), we will highlight a different craft from the old Acadian, Creole and Native American ways of life. Topics will range from woodcarving to textiles to foodways and many things in between.

During January's workshop, the legendary Jackie Miller of Iota, Louisiana, will be leading a traditional Courir de Mardi Gras mask making workshop, but think of it more as a party! We'll be providing mimosas and breakfast snacks. This workshop can accommodate 10 participants, and the $30 participation fee must be paid in advance. Jackie will provide everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind Cajun Mardi Gras screen mask, that you can either wear in a courir or hang on your wall to display as a work of art! To register, click here, or call 337.233.4077 or e-mail Vville@BayouVermilionDistrict.org.
