More than just words, a language of communication, culture and
knowledge is shared in the Mots partagés (Shared words) program. Twice a month,
from October to March, Montrealers of diverse origins get together to converse,
read and write in French.
Les Mots partagés (Shared words) provides an opportunity
to participate, free of charge, in reading and writing workshops in a number of
Montréal libraries. These workshops are designed not only for adults who are
learning the French language (at the intermediate and advanced levels), but also
for Montrealers who want to share their own culture and discover other
cultures.
Welcoming groups and stimulating workshops
Meetings take place in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Professional animators, who encourage dialogue about the selected readings, lead
the workshops. There are readings by local authors and writers from elsewhere.
There are also writing games.
