Culture
To fully embrace French culture, you must dive into the arts. France is home to some of the most renowned painters, writers, musicians, and filmmakers the world has ever known.

We facilitate an array of gatherings for our local Francophone/Francophile community to meet up and share a love of French culture. We
strive to showcase the richness of French culture through bilingual cultural programs, embodying the essence of both French traditions and
La Francophonie around the world.
Members and current students have access to all these activities and events. Check out these programs and don't forget that our joint
membership with L'Alliance New York grants you access to their events, as well!

This club is devoted to the reading and analysis of Proust’s seven-volume series In Search of Lost Time (À la recherche du temps perdu). Led by Proust scholar Fereshteh Priou, the group read the series in its entirety between January 2023 and December 2025. Fereshteh will begin a new round in June 2026 starting with Swann’s Way (Du côté de chez Swann). The monthly discussions are in English, but feel free to read in its original French text.
