Rodrigue Foundation Fundraiser - Randy Morris-8517-(ZF-1126-35520-1-026)On May 14th, 2015 Aioli Dinner guests enjoyed a four-course dinner under the oaks at the fabulous home of Randy and Cherry Morris, who are not only Rodrigue collectors, but enthusiatic supporters of the arts.  Mr. & Mrs. Morris have graciously opened their home for one night to celebrate the arts with a dinner inspired by one of George Rodrigue’s most famous paintings.

A four-Course dinner with wine was prepared by Chef Eric Johnson.  Guests were also entertained with art demonstrations, live and silent auctions of rare Blue Dog items, and live Cajun music provided by “The Vermillionaires”.  Photography was provided by Gary Guinigundo.

All proceeds benefited Louisiana A+ Schools, a program of the George Rodrigue Foundation of the Arts (GRFA).  GRFA is a non-profit organization dedicated to youth development through the arts in education.  Learn more at RodrigueFoundation.org and AplusLA.org
