About Louisiana Folk Roots
We're Louisiana Folk Roots, and we're based in Lafayette, the heart of Cajun and Creole Louisiana. Since we were founded in 1999, we've been on a mission to celebrate as much of Louisiana's rich cultural heritage as we possibly can.
No other organization does what we do. We celebrate Louisiana culture at the source, and we would like you to join us in our ongoing quest to have a great time building on the cultural traditions that make our corner of the world such an amazing place.

Want to find out what in the world a courir is?

We offer lots of experiential, immersive learning opportunities year round. Whether it's the music, the food, the dancing, the native crafts, the language and oral traditions, the natural history of our beautiful state, or all these things that draw you here, Louisiana Folk Roots is your connection.
