Haitian Art Reception

On Saturday, August 24th from 1pm-4pm at the St. Landry Parish Visitor Center in Opelousas, Louisiana, attend a reception celebrating the largest exhibit of Haitian art in Louisiana. The exhibit, which has been on display at the center throughout the summer, was specially selected from the collection of Glenn Stokes. His treasure-trove of works was accumulated over the course of 30 years alongside his wife, Yvonne Stokes, and has been exhibited across the Southern U.S. and even Venice, Italy.

At this reception, you’ll hear from Stokes as he explains his selections and elaborates on the extensive history between Louisiana and Haiti.

This event is free to attend and refreshments will be provided.
