Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day is upon us on June 24th, the national holiday celebrating French-Canadian and Québecois culture throughout Québec. French-Canadians also celebrate this holiday in other Canadian provinces and even in the United States.
These SJB festivities go the extra mile in Québec, with people donning extravagant blue-and-white face paint and decorative accessories. There are also plenty of creative costumes highlighting the colors and fleur-de-lys of their province’s flag.
So, how can Franco-Americans recreate these iconic looks for ourselves on SJB? We may not have extravagant parades, but we can make our own blue-and-white looks for this holiday!
