Louisiana First Horizon Foundation Invests in Louisiana Music Museum Project
The Louisiana First Horizon Foundation has announced a significant investment in the Louisiana Music Museum, a project managed by the Acadiana Center for the Arts. The funding is intended to support the museum's capital campaign and will include naming rights for the Walk of Legends Plaza, an outdoor entrance space located on South Buchanan Street in Downtown Lafayette. The museum will be housed in the historic 1890 Lafayette Hardware Store and aims to preserve Louisiana's diverse musical heritage, including Cajun, Creole, jazz, blues, and zydeco. Beyond cultural preservation, the project is expected to drive local economic growth through increased tourism and educational opportunities. Construction is scheduled to commence in 2027, with a projected opening date in 2028.
