The Ordre des Canardiers is 40 years old this year

This special anniversary was celebrated on June 6th during a Gala Evening held at « Espace Vue sur Seine » in Rouen.

The evening started with the induction of 19 new members, including Lady Canardiers, Gentleman Canardiers and Master Canardiers, who contributed to the growth of the Ordre by completing the list of 4500 inducted members since the Ordre was founded.

This impressionism-themed gala evening gathered 175 guests, including two foreign delegations, from Germany and Chicago, Illinois. The venue was decorated and lit by GSA and the flower arrangements were designed by Fleurs Ô Naturel. As for the cocktail reception and the meal, they were provided by Coudray Traiteur, our partner caterer.

The cocktail reception enabled the participants to meet and chat. Besides, they were also given the opportunity to take pictures in a special photo booth looking like an impressionist workshop, which enabled them to keep a memento from the evening.

Our warm thanks to everyone who made this anniversary a successful event.
