On the initiative of Jean-Marc Depreux, the English and French Conversation Club was created in November 2023 at the An Triskell Cultural Center in Langonet.
The French-born photographer has lived in England since the age of 5. “At Langonet, I realized that some of the English people I knew had difficulty expressing themselves in French; There is a clear obstacle to their integration. Also, meeting the participants of the media library's cultural club, interested in speaking English, he persuaded me to create a mixed group,” recalls Jean-Marc Debreux. Hence the creation of this club in which the French practice the language of Shakespeare and the English speakers respond to them in the language of Moliere. A recipe that the artist had already successfully developed during a visit to Drex (Eure-et-Loire).
“The sessions are based on very free discussions around tea in a caring and friendly atmosphere. We plan to celebrate Anglo-Saxon holidays, Saint-Patrick's Day, Thanksgiving and of course French holidays with other associations. The Name Search Club is open to all.

Next sessions: March 6 and 20, April 3 and 17.
