At Lafayette's Acadiana Center for the Arts, there is no preference for discipline. Appreciated on stage and in its galleries are dancers, folk musicians, contemporary singers, visual artists, photographers, improv actors, and film. Throughout the year, the Center's James Devin Moncus Theater hosts a slate of local and foreign films of note, as well as special screenings of the Metropolitan Opera's live performances.
