PART II-B. NEW ORLEANS CENTER FOR CREATIVE ARTS
§1970.21. Legislative intent
It is the intention of the legislature to enrich the cultural life of Louisiana, to honor
the history and past contribution of the state to the creative and performing arts, and to
provide continuing opportunities for the development of young artists by preserving and
enlarging a program for providing professional training to high school students by
reorganizing the program as a state agency. It is intended that the state shall make use of
the facility in a manner consistent with the history, traditions, goals, and principles of the
New Orleans Center for Creative Arts as it existed prior to July 1, 2000. It is intended
that the center be dedicated to providing professional quality opportunities for training,
coaching, and performing for those students who aspire to be artists, performers, and arts
technicians and who have demonstrated an aptitude for such work. It is intended that the
center also act as a center to provide expanded opportunities for the community to
experience and appreciate excellence in the creative arts.
