Cajun Dulcimer Jam

Joe’s group no longer jams at the Acadian Cultural Center (501 Fisher Road, Lafayette, Louisiana) which is part of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park. He’s taking a break from that location.

Joe’s group currently jams on Wednesdays in Opelousas at the St. Landry Visitor’s Center on I-49 at Exit 23. The jams are usually held from 10:00 am – 11:30 am. Again, check with Joe prior to heading out to make sure the jam is still on!!!
