Since 2016, he has used his custom hat business “The Cajun Hatter” as an avenue to express and preserve elements of Cajun and Creole culture. Currently, he has shifted his preservation efforts toward the healing tradition of which he has long been a part. In his talk “The Cajun Healer: Revival and Renewal” Hébert will share his perspectives on how we can honor tradition while embracing the changes necessary to sustain it.
