Bonjour!

The French Alliance (Alliance Française de Houston) was founded in 1923, and is the center of  French language and culture in Houston.  A privately-funded, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, it is one of over 1,000 Alliances in 138 countries around the world, offering not only comprehensive language instruction in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, but also a varied and dynamic cultural experience. Members are entitled to monthly screenings of French films with English subtitles, lectures, art and photography exhibits, receptions and concerts, and have access to our library and vidéothèque.  We offer a Vacation/Study Program in La Napoule in the South of France.  Wine tastings and cooking classes round out the cultural experience.   Each year, the Alliance awards 5 scholarships for study in France to university students and high school teachers.  We are affiliated with the Alliance  Française de Paris,  The US national headquarters, the Délégation Générale,

is located in Washington D.C.

 

Where ever you go, there we are.  As noted above, there are Alliances around the world, and over 100 of those are in the U.S.  Click here to see the U.S. Directory from the Délégation Générale website.

The Alliance Française of Houston was delighted to host the 2009 meeting of Alliance Directors from the U.S. and Puerto Rico on February 19-20. Over 30 directors, as well as the team from the Délégation Générale des A.F. in Washington D.C. and representatives from the Fondation Alliance Française in Paris, attended two days of productive meetings, with breaks for delicious meals by our favorite chef, Emmanuel Henry of Dinner is Possible, a Tex-Mex evening sponsored by AIR FRANCE, a reception at the Consulate of France, and of course, Texas sunshine and blue skies.

 

Grand Merci to Air France Regional Manager Sam Ghachem and Sales Director Michael Loft for their sponsorship!
