Gulf Brew moves to Blackham

Postponed last year, the Acadiana Center for the Arts’ annual and biggest fundraiser returns in 2016, moving back to summer from a brief run in the fall and into a new venue.

Postponed last year due to what can charitably be called a planning snafu, the Acadiana Center for the Arts’ annual and biggest fundraiser returns in 2016, moving back to summer from a brief run in October and into a new venue — Blackham Coliseum.

The beer festival featuring dozens of craft and micro brews from around Louisiana and the region, will take place on July 23 from 6-9 p.m. Tickets go on sale May 2 at the AcA and at the arts center’s website. Pre-purchased tickets are $35 and $40 at the door. Designated drivers (non-drinkers) can get in for $15.

Music for the event hasn’t yet been announced. Stay tuned for that.
