A Beloved Tradition: Silhouettes by Erik Johnson
For nearly eight years, we’ve had the pleasure of hosting silhouette artist Erik Johnson, and it’s become a favorite tradition among our customers. Erik is a third-generation silhouette artist, carrying on a family legacy that has spanned over 60 years. From coast to coast—and even around the world—Erik has wowed families with his incredible talent for hand-cutting detailed silhouettes in just minutes.
If you’ve ever had the chance to watch him work, you know it’s more than a craft—it’s a bit of magic. Customers consistently rave about the timeless keepsakes he creates and the special moments captured in each cut.
While Erik is taking this summer off from travel, we’re thrilled to share that he plans to return to Lafayette in February 2026! It may seem early, but we know many of you want to be first in line when he’s back in town.
