The Regroupement artistique francophone de l'Alberta (RAFA), an arts service organization and spokesperson for Alberta's Francophone artistic and cultural community, has a mission to foster the growth and vitality of Alberta's French-speaking artistic community.  

Arts and culture are an indispensable value in the development of society and in the daily lives of individuals. In addition to entertainment, arts and culture serve to celebrate our identity and express our difference. For over 200 years, cultural events in Alberta have stimulated and shaped Francophone communities. Today, our pool is enriched by newcomers from across the country, from Europe and Africa, as well as by Francophiles. The pulse of this new society beats to the rhythm of the artistic creation that is its reflection and expression.
