The FACC Project

ACFO-DP received its government grant by Patrimoine Canada for the project, “FACC”, which aims to organize a series of artistic activities for Francophone and Francophile seniors in order to begin their creativity and their well-being-be while looking at different strategies to have a more inclusive community using the visual arts. 

​Francophone and Francophile seniors were invited to learn about the visual arts with five artists who shared their experience through this project led by the ACFO-DP. This enriching activity consisted of 33 workshops, given in six locations, attended by 131 people of all ages.

Our team was proud to see seniors who make up a significant proportion of the Francophone community in the Durham – Peterborough region develop their artistic and social skills with enthusiasm.
