About this Event

Our educational workshops for members are perfect for those who want to practice and extend their French language studies but can't commit to a full class session. Each workshop is guided by our monthly theme. For May our theme is France: Past and Present and we're providing the opportunity to compare and discuss current and historical events in France.
