The Festival of Words hosts an evening of songs featuring Agnes Courville at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 27, at Chicory’s Coffee and Café in Grand Coteau.
Originally from Lyon, France, Courville is a writer and singer. She has taught in French immersion programs in Louisiana for 18 years, presently at Park Vista. She is an advocate for animal rights, nature and civil rights. You may see Agnes at local zydeco performances kicking up her cowgirl heels, celebrating the local culture that she adores. Courville lives in Opelousas and on Wednesday evening, she will sing songs in French and English, always with style.
Guests are welcome to bring their own poems, songs or stories for the open mic that follows Courville’s presentation.
