Welcome to the Centre Culturel Francophone de l'Okanagan!

The Centre Culturel Francophone de l’Okanagan (CCFO) is a non-profit organization that promotes the understanding and appreciation of French language and Francophone cultures amongst all residents of the Okanagan region.

Even though we are located in a beautiful deconsecrated church, the CCFO is a non-religious organization where everyone is welcome!

Come say Bonjour, join our classes and workshops, attend our events and festivals, or visit our library to borrow a book!

L'atelier du français inclusif, animé par Amé Simard, du Comité FrancoQueer de l'Ouest (CFQO), est offert aux personnes qui souhaitent pousser davantage leur réflexion et les façons de promouvoir l’inclusion à travers la langue parlée et écrite. La grammaire inclusive vise à promouvoir l’inclusion sous toutes ses formes en démystifiant les identités 2SLGBTQIA+, en faisant la promotion des néo-pronoms et en enseignant les bases de l’écriture épicène.

The Inclusive French workshop, facilitated by Amé Simard from the Comité FrancoQueer de l'Ouest (CFQO), is offered to those who wish to deepen their reflection and explore ways to promote inclusion through spoken and written language. Inclusive grammar seeks to foster inclusion in all its forms by demystifying 2SLGBTQIA+ identities, promoting the use of neopronouns, and teaching the basics of gender-inclusive writing.
