There is GTKmm: a C++ wrapping around GTK+. This would allow you to have a 
homogeneous C++ programming environment. Beside this, you can use C (and 
GTK+) from within a C++ program thanks to the fact that C++ is a superset of 
C. The resulting code can be ugly and less readable than C++/GTKmm, though.
