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 enjoy screenings of French films with English subtitles, lectures, art and photography exhibits, receptions and concerts, and have access to our library and vidéothèque, as well as discounts on our French language classes. 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 Fondation Alliance Française, the Federation of Alliance Françaises USA and the Délégation Générale, now located in Miami, FL.
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.
