The event featured storytellers Sh茅 and Jo (Sh茅h茅razade and Jos茅phine), who shared their tales in French.

She said that the event, co-hosted by the Conseil de d茅veloppement 茅conomique des Territoires du Nord-Ouest, was open to families, children, adults, newcomers and longtime Canadians. Twenty-five people took advantage of the opportunity to learn and practice French, as well as meet others and socialize.

Boisneault said they set up everything to make the atmosphere cozy and comfortable, with carpets, cushions, and snacks. She added that the stories were very engaging and interactive, and involved the participation of the audience. The stories revolved around collaboration, travel and culture.
