It seems like every time you turn around the folks at LA Prize Fest are innovating and creating new opportunities for the Shreveport area! If you've followed along over the years, it all started as the Louisiana Film Prize, then it grew to include music, fashion, food, comedy, and business startups... and now they've added a daily video series.

These fun daily videos will start Monday, April 6, 2020 and they'll be released each day at noon on Facebook and YouTube. And let's face it, we've got a little extra time at home these days to help support a great local endeavor!
