Preorder for the book Grandir et bâtir en milieu minoritaire

The first Franco-Ontarian cultural centres were initially places for gathering and socializing that offered recreational activities promoting personal and cultural development. In this sense, the Carrefour francophone de Sudbury (formerly known as the Centre des jeunes) has fostered the personal development and cultural journey of the members it has supported over the years.

Drawing on archival documents, newspaper articles, and interviews, this book delves into three-quarters of a century of cultural life in one of French Ontario’s major cities. It traces 75 years of efforts by Sudbury’s Francophone cultural center to foster the cultural fulfillment of individuals and the institutional development of the Francophone minority.

La Slague’s evolution

La Slague is a Francophone concert promotion agency in Greater Sudbury, Ontario. Its history extends back to the 60’s and 70’s, when La Slague presented performers such as Félix Leclerc, Jean-Pierre Ferland, Cano, Renée Claude, Harmonium and Offenbach. La Slague went dormant for a time in the 1990s, but it roared back to life in 2006 as part of the Carrefour francophone’s programming. Today, La Slague has been officially awarded the title of best concert promoter in French Ontario!
