French Culture Festival Comes To Charlotte: Sunday, July 16th

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty

 

Whether you're a Francophile, like myself, or not, why not come out to Nevin Park on Sunday, July 16th from 11:00 am till 6:30 pm and enjoy the Charlotte French Culture Festival. This is the first French Culture Festival in Charlotte, but hopefully not the last!

 

What a great opportunity tocelebrate the rich French culture, enjoy great food, wine, crepes, delicious pastries, music, dance and, of course, the pétanque initiation and tournament. There will also be a French-style market (loved those when I live in Paris). French life and culture is very dog-friendly so feel free to bring along your pooch (maybe even enter your dog in the canine costume contest)! See the Schedule of Events below.

 

Admission is $5.00 (free for kids under the age of three).

Nina, learned a new word today, thank you very much! Francophile:is a person who has a strong affinity towards any or all of the French language, French history, French culture or French people. That affinity may include France itself or its history, language, cuisine, literature, etc.

Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Real Estate ~ hi Gayle... actually, the true definition of Francophile is "Nina Hollander."  Love all things French--my crystal is Baccarat, my good china is Limoges, etc.

Jeff Dowler ~ hi Jeff... indeed... and I've been following your posts and enjoying the memories they bring back immensely. BTW, did you know the French do not call it Bastille Day? They call it National French Holiday.

I am not a Francophile, although I did study French in 7th grade and high school.  This is an event that I would surely enjoy attending, especially if you were there!

Nina,

We share the same love of crystal.  Have you been to this event?  We went to the one held here, and I could not wait to get the heck out, which is why I don't talk about it.  It was very un-french, I was so disheartened.  A

Ron and Alexandra Seigel ~ hi Alexandra... this is the first such festival in Charlotte, so I haven't been... and I won't get a change to attend this one as I'm working all afternoon with clients in an adjoining county on the total other side of Charlotte.
