The Louisiana cultural economy is an idea whose time has come, and I welcome your interest and involvement as we move this important sector forward. Throughout the pages of this report, you will discover Louisiana’s tremendous potential in positioning her arts and culture as a viable sector of the state’s overall economy. One year ago, my administration embarked upon an effort to study this cultural economy. We engaged the economists of Mt. Auburn Associates for cutting edge economic research and evaluation of arts and culture in our state. And as you’ll see, culture generates economic value, and a vibrant cultural economy is a critical component of our diversified economy. This report defines and evaluates Louisiana’s cultural economy. Most importantly, it recommends strategic objectives and action for developing our arts and culture. It indeed creates a foundation for adding value to our native talent and intellectual capital, and my administration is committed to transforming these words into action. I invite you to join us as we use this data to inform the process of building a strong and vibrant cultural economy to make Louisiana a great place to live, work and play. It is incumbent on all of us to address the challenges and the potential identified in this groundbreaking report and dedicate ourselves to strategic implementation plans. And finally, I am pleased to thank the National Endowment for the Arts for their significant contribution to this effort. Sincerely, Mitchell Landrieu Lieutenant Governor State of Louisiana ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Mt Auburn Associates wishes to thank all of the individuals in Louisiana who took time out to meet with us and to provide us with the relevant information needed to understand the economic challenges and opportunities of Louisiana’s Cultural Economy. We also want to thank the members of the Steering Committee who provided important insights and feedback throughout the process. In particular, Pam Breaux, Assistant Secretary, Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism (CRT), provided ongoing feedback and support. Gaye Hamilton, also of the CRT, provided guidance throughout the development of the entire process. We are also grateful to Ken Conner, Michael Sartisky, Cynthia Simien, and Martha Little for providing a constant link to the important information and data, setting up meetings, and keeping us excited about this unique place. Finally, this project could not have occurred without the vision and leadership of Lieutenant Governor Mitchell Landrieu and CRT Secretary Angéle Davis.

If you have been to New Orleans, you know Louisiana. Or so most people think. What the typical tourist does not see is the rich diversity of Louisiana culture that lies off the beaten path and beyond the limits of the Crescent City. Next to its famous jazz brass bands and New Orleans rhythm and blues, Louisiana may be best known for the Cajun and zydeco music of the francophone region surrounding Lafayette. The northern parishes are home to bluegrass and rockabilly music popularized by the Dixie Jamboree and Louisiana Hayride radio show, while the southeast gave rise to Louisiana’s distinctive swamp pop. Gospel and Delta blues grew out of the African-American experience, while contemporary black urban culture finds voice in a growing hip-hop scene. Once the opera capital of the New World, New Orleans staged the world premiere of its latest opera commission earlier this year. Louisiana’s culture lives in clubs and concert halls, on restaurant dance floors, and in backroom jam sessions. And that’s just the music. Louisiana culture is rooted in the French, Spanish, and Afro-Caribbean influence that predates the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. Subsequent waves of Anglo-Saxon and European immigrants joined indigenous Indians, African slaves, Acadian exiles, and free people of color in a complex racial, linguistic, and social mix that laid the foundation for today’s diverse culture. While the inevitable mixing of people led to a melding of cultural expressions, strong geographic, racial, and linguistic boundaries preserved distinct cultures that survive to this day. Louisiana’s many cultures are on show at the more than 500 festivals held throughout the state each year. Some Louisianans claim that the cultural festivals are really just an elaborate excuse to partake of crawfish, andouille, cochon, Natchitoches meat pies, jambalaya, and gumbo. Rice, fishing, farming, and trade in coffee feed a world famous culinary tradition that has produced celebrity chefs like Paul Prudhomme, Emeril Lagasse, Susan Spicer, and John Folse who, in turn, commit their culinary insights to a library of cookbooks. Louisiana’s tradition of spoken word lives on in traditional storytelling and contemporary coffee house poetry gatherings. The history of literary publications includes the 18th century Les Cenelles, published by Louisiana’s free people of color. Louisiana continues 3 to produce and attract writers whose work is celebrated at festivals named after William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, or just, The Book. Literature, in turn, underwrites a film industry that has produced nearly 500 films in Louisiana. Recent tax credits have boosted film production, but filmmakers have always been drawn to Louisiana’s unique historical architecture landscape and stories that simply could not take place anywhere else. Louisiana’s high-tech sound and media production facilities at University of New Orleans, Louisiana State University, Southern Louisiana Community College, and the University of Louisiana Lafayette service the growing film industry and provide hands-on training for the next generation of media artists and technicians.

  • Enhancing Urban Heritage: Industrial Culture and Cultural Industry
    Athens Journal of Architecture - Volume 1, Issue 1– Pages 35-50 Enhancing Urban Heritage: Industrial Culture and Cultural Industry By Esther Giani † Giancarlo Carnevale The rehabilitation of historical centres in Italy offers a vast quantity of experiences, though the concept of preserving urban and architectural heritage is quite recent. In fact the same experience does not find place for industrial districts or areas. The scale of intervention is specific to each case as it deals with single artefacts as well as complex building systems, open spaces and urban closeness. The heterogeneity of adopted methods is a result of diverse contextual conditions and, perhaps above all, diverse urban policies. An initial distinction must be made between Monument and Document, thus distinguishing two levels, both equally relevant to the preservation of the identities of a site, though of widely varying origins and – quite often – diverse physical, formal and functional consistency. This text will examine primarily those aspects related to urban morphology, looking at buildings by means of the Vitruvius paradigm: firmitas, utilitas and venustas. These notions will, however, be subordinated to superior levels of programming. Political choices determine what can be pursued, while economic strategies indicate the limits of each intervention; last but not least is the notion of environmental sustainability in its broadest meaning that encompasses issues of energy, economics, function, technology and, above all, society. We will attempt to further narrow the field by considering the rehabilitation of a complex industrial district: the first methodological choice concerns the type of analysis (the reading) adopted to acquire notions useful to the development of a concept design.

  • Marrying Millennials,Go All Out, Baby!,Congratulations
    Marrying Millennials You know a demographic is just too big to be ignored when pro football teams start catering to it. This year, the San Francisco 49ers have begun tackling the challenge of coaching their newest recruits, Millennials, the generation of 18- to 34-year olds taking the world by storm. As a retailer, you need to take a play from the 49ers’ playbook and think about ways you can reach Gen Y. And we’re here to help. Last month, we shared five tips for getting Millennials in your store. Today, we’ll tell you how Ever&Ever, Stuller’s newest bridal offering, appeals to this high-spending group. Styling Millennials represent our present and our future, but this generation loves styles that hearken back to the past. Rather than asking granny to hand over her engagement ring, though, prospective grooms are looking for new rings withvintage looks that can be customized to meet their exact specifications. Ever&Ever offers an assortment of traditional styles that fit the bill. Of course, young brides aren’t completely eschewing on-trend styles. Just as many want engagement rings that reflect the new and popular. Morgan Bares, Stuller’s Bridal Product Manager, explains, “The two-tone look is definitely in right now; we’ve seen it at all the major shows and all over Hollywood. New brides like the idea of mixing and matching metals to create something completely unique.” Fortunately, Ever&Ever offers the two-tone look that many contemporary brides are choosing. Personalization No matter which style they choose as a starting point, Millennials aren’t content to buy off the shelf.
