Because of sponsors like Andrée & Carlton Casey, we’re able to provide musical instruments to children in need, giving more students the chance to join their school band and discover the joy of making music.

Thank you to Andrée & Carlton Casey for supporting Bayou Arts Fest as a Parade of Flags Sponsor, and to every sponsor who gave their time, energy, and generosity to make this year’s festival possible.

Your support helps us continue the work of the Bayou Regional Arts Council’s Notes for Kids program - ensuring the arts remain alive and accessible across South Louisiana.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us make a lasting impact through creativity and community.

And thank you to all of our sponsors who made this festival possible. đź’›

đź’› What a beautiful day in Downtown Houma.

Bayou Arts Fest 2025 reminded us what makes this community so special - the people who show up, pitch in, and believe in keeping the arts alive in South Louisiana.

To every sponsor, volunteer, artist, performer, and friend who supported this year’s festival - thank you. Your time, energy, and generosity made the day meaningful and memorable.

Every dollar raised helps fund local arts initiatives like Notes for Kids, putting instruments in the hands of children and keeping creativity thriving across the Bayou Region.

We’re grateful for everyone who helped make it happen. 💛
