Council awards contract for new Simon Theatre art-display stands
Summary
The council awarded a contract to Byron's Cabinets and Woodworks to produce mobile display stands for art at the Simon Theatre; stands will be used for the plein air festival and other events.
The New Iberia City Council approved a resolution awarding a contract to Byron's Cabinets and Woodworks for removable art-display stands to be used at the Simon Theatre and for the city’s new plein air festival.
Council members said the stands are lightweight and movable so they will be used at multiple venues and events. The administration said the festival — now produced by the city — is progressing and that staff are processing artist applications.
Why this matters: The stands are a small capital purchase intended to support local arts programming and help the city host open-air and indoor displays without permanent construction.
Next steps: The contractor will build the stands for delivery and the city will integrate them into festival and theater event planning.
