The 100th anniversary of the ACFC is being celebrated with a new exhibition of photographic works at the Chapel Gallery.
ACFC is the acronym for Association Culturelle Franco-Canadienne. In 1998 it was changed to L'Association Communautaire Fransaskoise.
Claude Desnoyers has created "Ou sont passes non reve d'antan? Whither our dreams of yesteryear?" as a tribute to the first provincial francophone organization. The collection of images evokes a sense of nostalgia and remembrance of the past. This exhibition is on display in the Windows Salon for the month of March.
