For many citizens of Acadiana, water is more than a utility or even simply a natural element—it's a way of life. So it's easy to see why Jeanerette Museum is excited to host Water/Ways, a traveling exhibition from the Smithsonian via its Museum on Main Street Program. The exhibition examines water's importance on various levels of our lives, from environmental to social to political and so much in between.
In addition to the exhibit, which will contain a plethora of multimedia and interactive displays and kiosks geared towards all ages, there will be a whole suite of complementary programming throughout St. Mary and Iberia parishes. These events, which will be held throughout the run of the exhibition, focus on the theme of water through how it relates to Acadiana. Naturally, there's no shortage of topics, or ways to express them. From movie screenings to author talks to an art exhibit by L'Acadian Art Guild, there's plenty for everyone to take in no matter what your interest.
