The Office of the Lieutenant Governor & the Department of Culture, Recreation & Tourism certified the Thibodaux Cultural District effective July 1, 2014. The Louisiana Cultural Districts Program was created by the Louisiana Legislature in 2007 to spark community revitalization based on cultural activity through tax incentives, technical assistance, & resources. The program waives local sales taxes on original, one-of-a-kind art sold in the district as well as provides tax credits for eligible expenses for rehabilitation of owner-occupied or revenue-generating historic structures within the district.
