Happy July 14 – Bastille Day!
Celebrating French-American friendship and culture here in Ohio!!
On Sunday, July 13, the French-American Chamber of Commerce (FACC) Ohio hosted a spirited Bastille Day celebration at La Ville Lumière, Cleveland’s dazzling new French restaurant on the near west side to toast French culture, cuisine, and camaraderie.
Special thanks to Chef and owner Kevin O’Connell, who welcomed guests and showcased the best of his culinary talents throughout the event.
This celebration was also a fundraiser for the French Cultural Garden, with a portion of each ticket going toward this important cultural initiative. Guests also supported the effort through a small but meaningful silent auction. Merci to all who contributed!
And we weren’t alone in the festivities—over 1,000 Ohioans participated in Bastille Day celebrations across the region over the past four days at French restaurants including:
Edwins Leadership & Restaurant Institute
The Judith
L'Albatros Brasserie + Bar
Cru Uncorked
Le Petit Triangle Café
Chez François
