In Canada, Francophone and Acadian communities have made tremendous contributions to our rich cultural heritage and our history. Held each year on March 20, International Francophonie Day is an opportunity to celebrate the French language and culture in all its diversity.

Organized by the Canada School of Public Service and Canadian Heritage, this event will celebrate the Francophone arts community. It will highlight the importance of French and Francophone culture in Canada and celebrate our differences and similarities.

Participants will learn more about Canada’s Francophonie and what motivates our guests to be involved in the French-language arts scene.
