Conference October 21, 2026

About the event

On July 1, 2026, the City of Outreau and the Réseau d’Acteurs signed a partnership agreement to promote the Boulogne Picard dialect, for a minimum term of three years. The goal: to keep the dialect alive in everyday life through events, performances, intergenerational gatherings, workshops, and outreach programs for young people. The town hopes to rely on a group of volunteers and is issuing a call for applications. An informational meeting will be held at the Phénix Center.
