Positively Iberia! brings a “A Life and Legacy Visit with Wendy Rodrigue” this Thursday, October 28th!

After nearly two years in the making, (mainly due to pandemic-related scheduling) meet Wendy Rodrigue, widow of famed artist and New Iberia native, George Rodrigue – zooming in live for our radio broadcast from the Rodrigue Room at her home in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
As she prepares to relaunch her “Life and Legacy Foundation” art education tour, Wendy said of the interview and upcoming visit to New Iberia, “I’m very excited to finally see this happen; and to celebrate my 100th school, George’s alma mater Catholic High! See you soon, New Iberia! 💙.”
