Loudhouse x Archives Exhibition

Two outside-the-lines arts organizations in Acadiana are coming together this fall to present a night of "unparalleled artistic wonder" in downtown Lafayette. ARCHIVES is a new exhibition series that coordinates and curates unconventional group shows, celebrating area artists of all experience levels. Likewise, Loudhouse Projects is a cohort of more than twenty artists with a mission of pushing Lafayette's art scene past its boundaries, exploring experimental expressions of art in all its forms.

This October, the two groups have partnered to stage a two-part surrealistic experience in the Chase Tower in downtown Lafayette. Layering themes of self, belief, and identity—the show begins with Loudhouse's multi-room installation, designed to stimulate all five senses, which will lead into Archives' debut showcase, featuring fine art from over twenty local artists. Guests will be allowed inside for one-hour increments beginning from 5 pm–6 pm, and ongoing until 9 pm–10 pm. $25. archivesexhibitions.org. loudhouseprojects.com.
