Original work in a historic garden

Vendors from across Louisiana will display and sell original art and handcrafted goods in the Shadows gardens. The setting brings a slower-paced art fair experience to downtown New Iberia.

The event also offers food and beverages, and vendor-donated raffle prizes. Funds raised support preservation and maintenance of Shadows-on-the-Teche.

What to know before visiting

The fair shares a weekend with the World Championship Gumbo Cookoff, so downtown may be busy. Plan for the garden’s no-pets and no-smoking rules.

Before you go

Check the Shadows event calendar for any weather or access updates before traveling.
