The Confederation Centre of the Arts in Charlottetown, built in 1964 to commemorate the centenary of the Charlottetown Conference (1-9 September 1864), was the inspiration behind the founding of the Charlottetown Summer Festival [often designated "Charlottetown Festival"]. A summer festival of Canadian performers organized by Mayor Moore to celebrate the opening of the Centre was so successful that Moore was retained as the first artistic director of an annual event dedicated to the encouragement of Canadian writers and performers. 2, record 1, English, - %20The%20Charlottetown%20Festival

Construit pour commémorer le centenaire de la Conférence de Charlottetown(du 1er au 9 septembre 1864), le Centre des arts de la Confédération à Charlottetown a inspiré la création du Festival d’été de Charlottetown(souvent désigné «Festival de Charlottetown»). Le premier festival organisé par le maire Moore en vue de souligner l'ouverture du Centre s’avère un tel succès que son organisateur est retenu comme premier directeur artistique d’un événement qui devient annuel l'année suivante et dont l'objectif est d’encourager les écrivains et les artistes de la scène canadiens. 2, record 1, French, - Le%20Festival%20de%20Charlottetown
