Voyages en Francophonie
Travel the French-speaking countries in one day! Come and eat, read, talk, listen and play in French. Visit the many stalls representing countries from the French-speaking world, and explore their literature, stories, games, food and music. Children are encouraged to 'travel' to each country, get their 'passport' stamped, learn and have fun. Other attractions are a puppet-making workshop, an art exhibit, a scavenger hunt, French literature for sale, a performance and workshop by The Silimbo D'Adeane West African Dance & Drum Company, and master storyteller Charlot Lucien from Haiti, and of course, crepes and Belgian waffles! Admission is free, but please bring a non-perishable food item for Newton's food pantries.
