Kitchen Party d’cuisine

A kitchen party is a festive tradition that brings people together—typically in the kitchen, which is often considered the heart of the home.

At these informal gatherings, the atmosphere is pleasant, with guests engaging in traditional songs, dances, and lively performances using instruments like fiddles, guitars, and spoons. Even those without instruments are welcome to join in by clapping or stomping their feet, contributing to the rhythmic beats that define the event.

This sense of collective participation creates an inclusive environment, where everyone feels part of the fun.

For a sneak peek of this joie de vivre, here is a short video featuring a compilation of images & footage from 3 kitchen parties that were hosted in Ste. Anne, Notre-Dame de-Lourdes and St. Pierre in 2024.
